Reverse ARP. Using this
protocol, a physical device requests to learn its IP address from a gateway server's ARP
table. When a new device is set up, its RARP client program requests its IP address from the
RARP server on the router. Assuming that an entry has been set up in the router table, the
RARP server will return the IP address to the machine which can store it for future use. See
ARP (Address Resolution Protocol).
