Which criteria does the switch use to build dynamic Mac table?
address resolution protocol is used when the switch used to build the dynamic mac address table.
What information in an Ethernet frame is used by a Layer 2 switch to build its address table?
Source MAC-address
What addressing information is recorded by a switch to build its MAC address table?
the source Layer 2 address of incoming frames
How does the switch learn the Mac address?
Each Ethernet frame sent from one computer to another includes the source and the destionation MAC addresses. It is from these addresses that the switch learns what device is connected to the port. At first, the switch won't know the destination address; in that case, it will broadcast the frame through all of its ports. But soon it learns this information. It is also possible, in some switches, to add the MAC address through configuration commands.
Which two statements describe the operation of an access layer ethernet switch choose two?
The source MAC address within a frame is used by the switch to associate a port with that MAC address. Frames are directed by the switch from one port to another based on the destination MAC address within the frame.
Where is a MAC address stored in a Switch?
Switches store the MAC addresses in an internal database called MAC Address Table. The entries in that table can be addresses learned by the switch or that can be entered manually by the switch administrator. This table is analogy to a router's routing table, only a switch operates at layer 2 whereas the router operate at Layer 3.
When would a switch record multiple entries for a single switch port in its MAC address table?
A switch would record multiple entries for a single switch port in its MAC address table if it does not contain the Mac address of a particular destination in the address table. It will broadcast to all ports besides the port where entry comes from.
Network layer protocol that obtains the MAC physical address of a host or node and then creates a database that maps the MAC address to the hosts IP logical address?
ARP
What address does a switch use for implementing port security?
source mac address
Which address does a switch use for implementing port security?
The source MAC address
Does switch works on data link layer?
Switch working in Data link layer of OSI Model which is working my MAC address it is sending receiving packets by Mac address which switch make mac tale in RAM to save all information.
What information in a frame does a switch or bridge use to populate the MAC address table?
Source MAC address and source port
