A.
The MAC address table will now have an additional entry of fa0/1 FFFF.FFFF.FFFF.

B.
Only host A will be allowed to transmit frames on fa0/1.

C.
This frame will be discarded when it is received by 2950Switch.

D.
All frames arriving on 2950Switch with a destination of 0000.00aa.aaaa will be forwarded
out fa0/1.

E.
Hosts B and C may forward frames out fa0/1 but frames arriving from other switches will
not be forwarded out fa0/1.

F.
Only frames from source 0000.00bb.bbbb, the first learned MAC address of 2950Switch,
will be forwarded out fa0/1.

Explanation:
The configuration shown here is an example of port security, specifically port security using
sticky addresses. You can use port security with dynamically learned and static MAC
addresses to restrict a port’s ingress traffic by limiting the MAC addresses that are allowed to
send traffic into the port. When you assign secure MAC addresses to a secure port, the port
does not forward ingress traffic that has source addresses outside the group of defined
addresses. If you limit the number of secure MAC addresses to one and assign a single
secure MAC address, the device attached to that port has the full bandwidth of the port.
Port security with sticky MAC addresses provides many of the same benefits as port security
with static MAC addresses, but sticky MAC addresses can be learned dynamically. Port
security with sticky MAC addresses retains dynamically learned MAC addresses during a
link-down condition.
