200-301 Exam - Question 857


When a switch receives a frame from an unknown source MAC address, which action does the switch take with the frame?

Show Answer
Correct Answer: C

When a switch receives a frame from an unknown source MAC address, it associates the source MAC address with the LAN port on which it was received and saves it to the MAC address table. This helps the switch keep track of which MAC addresses are reachable on which ports, optimizing future network traffic handling.
