First Released:

Last Updated: April 3, 2007
The purpose of this module is to describe how to configure the Next Hop Resolution Protocol (NHRP)
for use in a nonbroadcast multiaccess (NBMA) network. NHRP is an Address Resolution Protocol
(ARP)-like protocol that dynamically maps nonbroadcast multiaccess (NBMA) network. With NHRP,
systems attached to an NBMA network can dynamically learn the NBMA (physical) address of the other
systems that are part of that network, allowing these systems to directly communicate.
