User Guidelines
The software uses ARP cache entries to translate 32-bit IP addresses into 48-bit
hardware (MAC) addresses. Because most hosts support dynamic address
resolution, static ARP cache entries generally do not need to be specified.
Example
The following example adds IP address 198.133.219.232 and MAC address
00:00:0c:40:0f:bc to the ARP table.
switchxxxxxx(config)#
