Name	Type	Description
IArp	module interface	Interface for Address Resolution Protocol (ARP) implementations. Provides address resolution services for mapping network layer addresses (e.g., IPv4) to link layer addresses (e.g., MAC). Modules implementing this interface maintain a cache of address mappings and handle resolution requests from the network layer.
