Object

column mandatory r/w Enumeration
When the value is ALL_CLIENTS, LE_ARP_RESPONSE
frames initiated or forwarded by the LES are
sent to all clients on the Point-to-Multipoint
Control Distribute VCC(s).  When the value is
ONE_CLIENT, LE_ARP_RESPONSE frames are sent
solely to the client that originated the
associated LE_ARP_REQUEST over the Control
Direct VCC to that client.  The primary advantage
of sending LE_ARP_RESPONSE frames to all clients
is that the clients are provided an opportunity
to learn new {LAN Destination, ATM Address}
mappings by 'eavesdropping' (secondary effects
include lower LES processing requirements and
less latency introduced by the LES).  The
potential disadvantage is that the benefits of
eavesdropping, if it is even performed, may not
compensate for the additional client overhead.
