What occurs to frames during the process of frame flooding?
Frame flooding occurs when a switch receives a frame with an unknown destination MAC address. In this situation, the switch forwards the frame to all ports within the same VLAN, except for the port on which the frame was received. This ensures that the frame reaches its intended destination, if the destination is within the same VLAN, while avoiding unnecessary forwarding to other VLANs or back to the originating port.
Given answer C is correct
C is right. Frame flooding would be restricted to the devices that are in that VLAN. With a potential loop issue the flooding could occur from the switch NOT having a device match nor location in the MAC table. B would describe a broadcast.
Ans is C
Ref: Flooding vs Broadcast - Cisco Community Post by Kristian Alexander Brown “… Flooding is sometimes known as an unknown unicast. This happens when a switch receives a frame with a destination mac address it does not have in the CAM table. It will flood it out all ports except the receiving port of the frame. …” A. Frames are sent to all ports, including those that are assigned to other VLANs. Wrong answer. B. Frames are sent to every port on the switch that has a matching entry in MAC address table. Wrong answer. C. Frames are sent to every port on the switch in the same VLAN except from the originating port. Correct answer. D. Frames are sent to every port on the switch in the same VLAN. Wrong answer.
C is correct
Correct
During the process of frame flooding, frames are replicated and forwarded to all ports on a network switch, except the port from which the frame was received. This technique is commonly used in Ethernet networks when the destination MAC address of a frame is unknown or if the frame needs to be broadcasted to multiple devices on the network. Therefore answer is C.
C is correct.
C, all port except original port
D is correct. FF00::/8 and FF00::/10 are both multicast addresses. https://www.ciscopress.com/articles/article.asp?p=2803866&seqNum=5
No C is correct, you provided IPV^ multicast addresses which operate at layer 3 and are known as packets. The question states layer 2 frames meaning mac addresses.
