maximum number of MAC address entries allowed? ........................................................................ 8

 

Q. Why don't the MAC address table and the ARP table update the entry for a MAC address 

immediately after the device receives an ARP request from the MAC address on a different 

port than the existing one? ........................................................................................................... 8
