Re: How to send arp request with no other traffic

[Renaud Waldura]

An amusing trick to populate the ARP table is to ping the broadcast address.
Even if hosts do not reply to your ping packet (typically, Windows
machines), they are entered in the ARP table.

You still have to send a single packet, but it does all the work.
