Switches build their CAM tables by observing the source MAC address of incoming frames

• Drop the frame

• Flood the frame out all ports (except the receiving port)

• Send an ARP request

• Store the frame until destination is known

When using _____ frames are forwarded as soon as the switch can read the destination MAC address

• Fragment-Free Switching

• Fast-Forward Switching

• Store and Forward Switching

• Ethernet Switching

VLANs segregate hosts in different Broadcast Domains.
