What is ipNetToPhysicalPhysAddress?

This field stores the MAC (physical) address of a network device corresponding to a known IP address in the system's ARP (Address Resolution Protocol) table. It represents the Layer 2 hardware address needed to reach a particular IP-networked peer. Operators query this to debug routing or connectivity issues by confirming that the expected hardware address is associated with an IP.
