*>> So, is there a clear rule about how we should do it?* its not about rule, its all about the effectiveness of your implementation. Its always a better implementation, to update a ARP table, as and when the packets come. But u dont pass it on to the IP layer,since the destination IP address is different.
There is always a possibility of exchanging the messages within the sub-net. This method saves one ARP query when needed. Hope you got the idea. kiran.
