We derive the Nahm construction of monopoles from exact tachyon condensation
on unstable D-branes. The Dirac operator used in the Nahm construction is
identified with the tachyon profile in our D-brane approach, and we provide
physical interpretation of the procedures Nahm gave. Crucial is the
introduction of infinite number of brane-antibranes from which arbitrary
D-brane can be constrcuted, exhibitting a unified view of various D-branes. We
explicitly show the equivalence of the D3-brane boundary state with the
monopole profile and the D1-brane boundary state with the Nahm data as
transverse scalars.
