ADDRESS RESOLUTION PROTOCOL ENTRY VERIFICATION

Abstract:

In some embodiments, a method receives a first address resolution mapping from a workload and verifies the first address resolution mapping. When the first address resolution mapping is verified, the method adds the first address resolution mapping to a list of address resolution mappings. The list of address resolution mappings includes verified address resolution mappings. The list of address resolution mappings is sent to the workload to allow the workload to verify a second address resolution mapping using the list of verified address resolution mappings.
