Abstract
If an address-resolution request message is received from a data processing terminal via an interface connected to the data processing terminal, it is determined whether a physical address corresponding to a target network address of the address-resolution request message has already been registered. If it has been registered, then an address-resolution response message containing the corresponding physical address is created and the created message is transferred to a terminal via the interface.
