ARP Flooding
Several viruses send a lot of ARP traffic in an attempt to discover hosts to infect.
A lot of ARP traffic from a single machine, looking for MAC addresses for many of the IP addresses on your local network, there might be a virus on your network that's scanning your network for machines to infect. It's been claimed that the Wootbot virus does this.

address resolution protocol and reverse address resolution protocol
An ñARPî or Address Resolution Protocol is a protocol that is used in telecommunications for a resolution of network layer addresses into link layer addresses, which is vital in multiple access networks. It is also the name of the program that is used when manipulating addresses in most operating systems. The Address Resolution Protocol is used to convert an IP address to a physical address such as an Ethernet Address.
Arp (address resolution protocol)
ARP address resolution protocol
Address Resolution Protocol (ARP)ARP is primarily used to translate IP Addresses to Ethernet MAC Addresses.
BOOTP is the booting protocol. RARP is the Reverse address resolution protocol.
RARP is short from Reverse Address resolution protocol. As the name suggests RARP functions the reverse as ARP. That is it maps MAC address to IP address.
Arp (address resolution protocol)
The Windows command arp stands for address resolution protocol which simply transforms an IP address to its corresponding physical network address.And 'arp -a' simply lists down the physical network addresses of the network devices connected to the current PC.
Converts IP address to Media Access Control (MAC) Address.
RARP (Reverse Address Resolution Protocol) maps layer 2 addresses to layer 3 addresses. ARP (Address Resolution Protocol) maps layer 3 addresses to layer 2 addresses.
