No. The switch itself will only have one MAC address. Only routers use different MAC addresses for each port.

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.


Which address does a switch use for implementing port security?

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.


What would be the result if the MAC address table was flushed of dynamic entries?

The switch would broadcast frames out each port except the originating port until the switch learned all the MAC addresses connected to the switch.


What information in a frame does a switch or bridge use to populate the MAC address table?

How an Ethernet switch sends a frame out a single port to a receiver?

The switch learns the MAC address of the device connected to a port during port initialization. It will then send data out the port based upon the destination MAC address as specified the the packet header.


What is layer 2 switching?

This refers to switching at layer 2 of the OSI reference model, for example, Ethernet. A switch looks at the MAC address of each Ethernet frame ("packet", you might say, but at this level the correct name is "frame"), and if it knows that this MAC address is connected at a certain port, the switch will send the information out ONLY through that port.This refers to switching at layer 2 of the OSI reference model, for example, Ethernet.

What is a Mac table?

sometimes when interface configured with a static IP address, which is not correct, the host does not communicate to the port, and switch has no MAC address. I've seen it just two days ago - had an Linux appliance with a static IP address configured on the interface. Plugged interface to the switch, port says "Connected", but no MAC address in the CAM table. After I changed an IP address to whatever it should be for the VLAN - NIC started to communicate, and MAC address appears on the port.


When port security is enabled a switch port uses the default violation mode of until specifically configured to use a different violation mode?

Yes, By default port security is disabled on a Cisco switch. If it is enabled the default violation mode is shutdown with a maximum MAC address count of 1. Even if port-security is enabled it will not place a port into the shutdown state until either MAC address sticky or a static MAC address is configured on the port.
