InArp and Encapsulation aal5snap / aal5mux

Hello

this is my first mail to GS since I've started studying to the LAB,so if
I'm posing a dumb question, I'm sorry but a newbie is a newbie... :)

I have two doubts and I wonder if the GS could clarify it to me.
I'm doing some exercises regarding ATM on which it is mentioned that "no
inarp is allowed and that the encapsulation type to be used is the one
which allows multiple protocols to be used."

To me they are talking about aal5snap, which is fine.
After that I do a static mapping of the IP address on the remote side,
which should disable inarp. So why, when I do sh atm vc detail there is
always one field who is telling me InArp frequency 15 minutes, if it
should be off?
On the opposite side, when using aal5mux (one protocol only) it tells me
InArp disabled, as it should after a static mapping.

In order to disable inarp on aal5snap do I need to do static mappings to
ALL protocols suported on aal5snap?

The other doubt is when it is refered to configure a PVC using map
commands, to what are they referring? Is it "atm pvc VCD VPI VCI
encapsul ..." 'Cause I can't find any map command related to ATM... :(
