When you ping a PC, your computer first checks its ARP (Address Resolution Protocol) cache to see if it already has the MAC address associated with the target IP address. If the MAC address is not found in the cache, your PC sends an ARP request to the local network, asking "Who has this IP address?" The device with the matching IP address responds with its MAC address, allowing your PC to store it in the ARP cache for future communications. This process enables the delivery of packets over the local network.

What will a host on an Ethernet network do if it receives a frame with a destination MAC address that does not match its own MAC address?
On a hub network:The host (PC-A) computer sends the frame out its Network Interface Card (NIC) to Fast-Ethernet 0/1 (F0/1) on the HUB. The HUB then sends that frame out every interface (except incoming interface). If the destination MAC address is aaa.bbb.ccc, and PC-B has MAC address aaa.aaa.bbb, then PC-B's NIC will ignore the frame and nothing else will happen.

Why does the PC send out a broadcast ARP prior to sending the first ping request?
The PC sends out a broadcast ARP (Address Resolution Protocol) request before the first ping request to determine the MAC address of the target device corresponding to its IP address. Since IP communication requires the MAC address for packet delivery on a local network, the broadcast ensures that all devices on the network segment receive the request. The target device will respond with its MAC address, allowing the PC to encapsulate the ping request in Ethernet frames for proper transmission.
