Have you ever asked yourself why there would be 140,737,488,355,328 (half of all) MAC addresses reserved for broadcast if it had no utilities over setting ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff? You're correct about fallback replication behavior matching t

Revealed preference tells you which of the given options people prefer over the others made available, not which they support. Sometimes that's the same thing, sometimes it's not.

If I'm 192.168.129.10 and I want to resolve who 192.168.129.17 is, I make an ARP with the destination as ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff. This is a placeholder L2 destination which just means "everyone". I likely need to do something compl

A network layering violation is when a protocol at one layer relies on its information being carried in protocols on other layers. It's not just when the addressing bits happen to match between layers, which would be done by the host l

ARP does not avoid this problem at all, it broadcasts until enough L2 information is exchanged to unicast (which usually happens to also be the point the L3 information is resolved). This is the same broadcast-then-unicast process ND uses,

The Asahi installer can set up a standard UEFI environment on the Mac and you're off to the races from there. The problem right now is more that you then need to use a patched kernel+mesa+others to do much with that environment. As mor

Great guess, not sure why it's at the bottom of the responses so far :). You can either have the hardware do additional lookups for every packet it processes or you can just follow the normal process for the very first packet from that

by zamadatix 11d ago
Morass, mess, broadcast/multicast, etc aside (seems more like complaints of complexity than layering), IPv4+ARP is the textbook example of a layering violation. When you do want to violate, having the L2 info in the L3 packet is still

IPv6 link local layers over Ethernet the same way Arp does. Both contain a source/dest MAC which is used for forwarding, both contain the relevant neighbor info. If anything, keeping the protocol's self-discovery messages wrapped

I'd bet (c) the M* variants offer the same generation of CPU in devices like the Mac mini but with more cores, a higher power budget, and less restriction on the code you can run. The A20 Pro just hit Geekbench first, both the A20 Pro

The problem with the acceptance of the given proof of the abc conjecture is rooted in beliefs the proof had at least one erroneous step in its logic which leaves gaps not able to be filled back in without significant new work in the proof.
