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.
