Hi,
I just know that we can view ARP table in Windows by using arp -a command. I wonder why Windows have ARP table? I thought ARP table is only for routers and L3 Switch?
Thank you for your help.

They have an arp table for the same reason as routers, switches etc. ie. they need to map IP addresses to the mac addresses so they can communicate with other devices.
A PC or server usually only has entries for other devices on the same subnet and it's default gateway unlike L3 devices which have entries for multiple subnets but they all have those tables.
