SLARP - Serial Line Address Resolution Protocol
Thursday, 29 March 2001 11:44
Serial Line ARP (SLARP) is used for serial interfaces that use High-Level Data Link Control (HDLC) encapsulation. A SLARP server, intermediate (staging) router, and another router providing a SLARP service may be required in addition to a TFTP server. If an interface is not directly connected to a server, the staging router is required to forward the address resolution requests to the server, otherwise a directly connected router with SLARP service is required. The Cisco IOS software attempts to use SLARP if it does not know the IP address of an interface at startup to respond to SLARP requests that software is able to answer.
