Short for AppleTalk Address Resolution Protocol, a protocol for mapping a device’s physical hardware address to a temporary Appletalk network-assigned address in Macintosh computer LANs. When a protocol stack sends a data packet, the protocol address specifies the destination. The data link layer relies on AARP to translate the protocol address into the hardware address of the destination node. Sponsored listings Over 50?
