-	  Normally, the kernel maintains an internal cache which maps IP
-	  addresses to hardware addresses on the local network, so that
-	  Ethernet/Token Ring/ etc. frames are sent to the proper address on
-	  the physical networking layer. For small networks having a few
-	  hundred directly connected hosts or less, keeping this address
-	  resolution (ARP) cache inside the kernel works well. However,
-	  maintaining an internal ARP cache does not work well for very large
-	  switched networks, and will use a lot of kernel memory if TCP/IP
-	  connections are made to many machines on the network.
+	  The kernel maintains an internal cache which maps IP addresses to
+	  hardware addresses on the local network, so that Ethernet/Token Ring/
+	  etc. frames are sent to the proper address on the physical networking
+	  layer. Normally, kernel uses the ARP protocol to resolve these
+	  mappings.
 
-	  If you say Y here, the kernel's internal ARP cache will never grow
-	  to more than 256 entries (the oldest entries are expired in a LIFO
-	  manner) and communication will be attempted with the user space ARP
-	  daemon arpd. Arpd then answers the address resolution request either
-	  from its own cache or by asking the net.
+	  Saying Y here adds support to have an user space daemon to do this
+	  resolution instead. This is useful for implementing an alternate
+	  address resolution protocol (e.g. NHRP on mGRE tunnels) and also for
+	  testing purposes.
 
-	  This code is experimental and also obsolete. If you want to use it,
-	  you need to find a version of the daemon arpd on the net somewhere,
-	  and you should also say Y to "Kernel/User network link driver",
-	  below. If unsure, say N.
