Apple Address Resolution Protocol
<networking> (AARP) Apple's system to allow AppleTalk protocol to work
over networks other than LocalTalk, such as Ethernet or Token Ring. AppleTalk
nodes announce their presence to the network so that other nodes can address
messages to them. AARP maps between AppleTalk addresses and other schemes. It is
actually a general address mapping protocol that can be used to map between
addresses at any protocol level.
