/*! \file arp.h \brief ARP Protocol Library. */
//*****************************************************************************
//
// File Name : 'arp.h'
// Title : ARP Protocol Library
// Author : Pascal Stang
// Created : 9/7/2004
// Revised : 7/3/2005
// Version : 0.1
// Target MCU : Atmel AVR series
// Editor Tabs : 4
//
/// \ingroup network
/// \defgroup arp ARP Protocol Library (arp.c)
/// \code #include "net/arp.h" \endcode
/// \par Description
/// To send anything over ethernet (or most any other physical network)
/// a packet must be addressed to a physical network node address, often
/// called a MAC/hardware/ethernet address. This MAC address identifies
/// a specific interface (like the ethernet card in your computer) on the
/// network.
/// ARP (Address Resolution Protocol) assists in mapping IP addresses to
/// the MAC addresses required to actually get data to its destination.
/// In other words, an IP address is not enough to send information over
/// ethernet. You need the MAC address of the network interface/card that
/// "owns" that IP address. ARP maintains a table mapping IP addresses to
/// MAC addresses. This table can be filled by both listening to
/// traffic on the network, as well as making specific ARP requests if
/// an IP<->MAC mapping is not in the table.
///
/// \note This code is currently below version 1.0, and therefore is considered
/// to be lacking in some functionality or documentation, or may not be fully
/// tested. Nonetheless, you can expect most functions to work.

This function should be called when IP packets are received over the

relationships from the ethernet and IP header of the packet. The
packet is not changed nor processed. Nothing is sent on the network.
Use of this command is not required, but it is a good way to
automatically fill the ARP table with information about nodes that are
active on the network.
\warning On very busy or heavily populated netorks, this can quickly
fill the ARP table with unnecessary entries, and/or cause some CPU load.

/*! Process outgoing IP packet to fill in ethernet header information.
To be sent on a network, an IP packet must have the correct ethernet
header information appended to the front. This function will fill
in this information.
A physical destination IP address argument is needed to support
sending to a gateway (i.e. when a packet is destined for a node that
is not on this network, IP addressing is as usual, but we phyiscally
send the packet to the gateway's ethernet address/interface).
\warning Technically, if an IP<->MAC address mapping is not in the
ARP table, then the IP packet should be held while an ARP request is
made, and the reply received. However, in single-threaded ram-limited
embedded systems, such a holdup is unacceptable. This function instead
sends the packet as an ethernet broadcast if a mapping cannot be found.
\todo Send the packet broadcast AND send an ARP request, if a mapping
is not found.
