Abstract:
This document proposes a method to reduce the ARP broadcast in L2
networks. There will be two MAC tables in the aggregation switches
which answer for the ARP responses and packet forwarding. Multicast
will take the place of broadcast for ARP request in this document
which will lead to the reduction of the numbers of ARP broadcast
packets in L2 networks.
