Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Address Resolution Protocol (ARP) is responsible for translating an IP address in an IP datagram into the appropriate media access control layer address for delivery on a local area network. This process is called ARP resolution, and it allows for communication between devices on the same network using their MAC addresses. TCP and UDP operate at a higher layer, transport layer, while Network Address Translation (NAT) is used for translating IP addresses between private and public networks.
