If you try to reach an IP address that does not exist on your network,
Windows shows this IP address to have MAC address 00-00-00-00-00-00 in your
ARP table. It means that the host did not respond to the initial ARP
request.
Try it:
PING an IP address in your subnet that does not exist and then type "arp -a"
at a command prompt. You will see it. The type category will probably show
as invalid.
