What if I have one SMAC but the destination is multiple devices,like broadcasting a video.Is the same process followed?OR what if the SMAC doesn't have a Destination and wants to send to any possible number of devices....then how does the process work?

[@Phantom-pj1ls]

Ok now SW knows where PC1 and PC3 are located. What about if PC1 now wants to send a frame to PC2? Will the next flooding include PC3 as well (Im mean It shouldn't right? He knows he's not gonna find that mac at FA0/3)? Or just FA0/2 interface?

[@AnhNguyen-kb7fz]

i think it will include PC3 because it's said right there that it's sending the frame to every port connected to the switch (which are PC3 and PC2, and the PC2 will reply)

[@emiljoseph9818]

Yet, it'll send to all the ports avaliable since its unknown unicast, So for instance, if there are two unknown unicast frames in the LAN at the same time, switch will not be able to detect which one belongs to which, so in that case, I believe it should be sent to all.
