Every packet that comes in goes through its node's IP thread (UDP, TCP) or
ICMP thread (ICMP), as Java's IPThread and ICMPThread: deliver, answer an
echo request or forward, one after the other; while one waits for ARP, the
next wait behind it. A packet a node sends to itself is delivered at once,
as Java's IP.senden does. The transport send threads and these are one
mechanism now (handToProtocolThread).
ArpRun has three stories through the router (routedUdpBehind,
routedPingBesideUdp, routedPingBehindPing); the oracle writes ICMP frames
with type, code, addresses and sequence number. All seven ArpRun stories
match Java FILIUS.
Measured and not taken: Java's ARP wakes one waiter with notify, not the
one whose answer came; the core wakes all that wait for the address.

Sends to addresses no card has on the new arp-routed network (ping on the
LAN and behind a router, two UDP datagrams, one behind a failing one):
frames and calls. ScenarioNetwork builds routers and their interfaces.
Measured: ARP asks twice, a round trip each, then host unreachable; the
thread that waits is the ping's caller, the router's IP thread, or the
node's transport thread per protocol, which blocks the next send.
