Protocol) In the TCP/IP protocol suite, a protocol for mapping between (4-byte) IP addresses and (6-byte) data-link addresses. The IP addresses are network-based; the datalink addresses are hardware-based and are associated with a machine. ARP variants have been developed for a variety of networking environments, including the Apple- Talk environment, which supports AARP as the equivalent mapping protocol. 804 Protocol, ASP (AppleTalk Session Protocol)
