This document introduces the Scalable Address Resolution Protocol (SARP), an
architecture that uses proxy gateways to scale large data center
networks.  SARP is based on fast proxies that significantly reduce switches'
Filtering Database (FDB) table sizes and reduce impact of ARP and Neighbor
Discovery (ND) on network elements in an environment where hosts within one
subnet (or VLAN) can spread over various locations.  SARP is targeted for
massive data centers with a significant number of Virtual Machines (VMs) that
can move across various physical locations.
