1.1.5 Introduction to Gratuitous ARP
The following are the characteristics of gratuitous ARP packets:
z Both source and destination IP addresses carried in a gratuitous ARP packet are
the local addresses, and the source MAC address carried in it is the local MAC
addresses.
z If a device finds that the IP addresses carried in a received gratuitous packet
conflict with those of its own, it returns an ARP response to the sending device to
notify of the IP address conflict.
By sending gratuitous ARP packets, a network device can:
z Determine whether or not IP address conflicts exist between it and other network
devices.
z Trigger other network devices to update its hardware address stored in their
caches.
