derp derp
hi all
may please arpnetworks, ask you a question?
may I *
the best way to find out, is to ask..
If A (a copmputer) sends an arp request asking for B (other computer) to know its MAC addr
shoud anyother with this information respond to that arp request (let's say a C computer)
???
thx jpalmer
are you asking how ARP (the protocol) works?
yep
Hahaha
kinda of
well, first.. this channel is for arpnetworks,  the service provider/VPS
but,  in answer to your question,  no..  a 3rd computer should not answer the ARP request for a who-has that they don't have.
sorry 4 my mistake
anyway, are you sure about it?
lol this guy
troll?
no way, i'm just interested in this information
well,  if random computers answered an arp request, when they don't have the IP..  networking as we know it simply wouldn't work.
dont want to disturb
thanks a lot jpalmer
are you sure?
anunez: IF you have multile machines answering an ARP request,   try clearing your arp cache.   otherwise, you probably have an IP conflict.
this a question about theory I donr really have this kind of problems
in that case, you'd probably stsart seeing runts on the wire.  they can be seen in a packet capture.
gotcha.   yes,  I'm sure thats how arp works.   I'd advise reading a bit about  how arp who-is  and who-has works
mm ok
so,
how many responses shoud a machine expect to receibe after a arp request?
only 1?
receive*
typically, 1. though there are occasions where you may get multiple.
how?
this is the part where I tell you to read, and understand how the protocol works ;)
my exam is tomorrow, may I get some extra pacience from u? plz
:D
lol.
my documentation is not complete
anaI'm not here to pass your exam.  if your exam is tomorrow,  I'd suggest rescheduling it,  or doing a LOT of reading today.
ok thanx, c ya
Hi all, looks like we're lacking in IPv6 connectivity.
I can't get ther either via HE or GBLX.
Much better now.
