Sorry, ARP is not part of the TCP/IP protocol suite, at least not formally. ARP is actually a generalized layer 3 protocol (yes, it is layer 3) that binds layer-2 and layer 3 data, and ARP can work with any layer-3 protocol that needs it. ARP actually has a 2-byte field that indicates what protocol it is being used for. Theoretically, anybody who wants to invent a new layer-3 protocol can incorporate ARP for address-resolution purposes
