Hello Everyone!
I want to read the ARP cache and read all the mappings of Protocol addreses
with the Corresponding hardware addresses.
Can any one Suggest how to do that with the help of devctl( ) or ioctl( ).
Thanking for any help in Advance.
regards
Nitin
You can use the SIOCGARP ioctl on the /dev/io-net/ip_en
device.
If called with struct arpreq.arp_pa of all zeros, this
tells the stack you’re after all of them, rather than a
particular one. The return value is the number of
entries currently in the cache, so you can call it
once to get an estimate, malloc the required size,
then call it again to pull them all out.

hi Sean!
As suggested by u,I tried to read the ARP cache as shown in the attached C
file.
Still it is reading only one entry.
Can u please make it out Where Iam going wrong?
Thank u.

Here’s a quick and dirty version based on yours. If you notice
you’re still not getting all of them, it’s probably because
sizeof(sockaddr_in) + sizeof(sockaddr_dl) + sizeof(int) > sizeof(struct arpreq)
meaning you’ve under allocated.
