Hi,
Do a show cam dynamic on the switch port. This will give you the MAC address. Go to
the router or whatever do a show ARP and it will give you the IP address tied to the
MAC address.
An ARP Table as I understanmd it shows the mapping of IP address to MAC addresses.
The CAM table shows the table of MAC addresses to ports
