Hello!
Assume that Catalyst 3560 switch gets a frame on one of its ports. Let the port be Gi0/3
The frame is an arp-reply paket, so SHA and DHA fields are unicast addresses.
Let the SHA = A.A.A and DHA = B.B.B
When the frame comes onto that interface, the mac-address table on the switch has such entry:
switch#sh mac address-table dynamic vlan 5
Mac Address Table
-------------------------------------------
Vlan Mac Address Type Ports
---- ----------- -------- -----
5 B.B.B DYNAMIC Gi0/3
Question: what will happen with the frame?
Tnx.
Alex.

Hello,
If the catalyst gets an ARP reply on Gi 0/3 and the destination address is
registered on Gi 0/3 itself, then the switch will act like a normal Bridge
and drop the packet.
