Explanation

The command arp -a <IP address> displays the ARP cache entry for a specific IP address (or all entries if no IP is specified). The -d switch deletes a cache entry, -s adds a static ARP entry, and -g is functionally equivalent to -a on some platforms but is less commonly referenced. On Windows and Linux, -a is the standard flag for viewing the ARP table.
