Extracted text: A data link layer switch SW1 is connected with four hosts (H1, H2, H3, H4) as shown in figure below: a) Suppose switch table is empty and switch receives a frame with source MAC address of H1 (MAC-H1) and destination MAC address of H2 (MAC-H2). What actions will be performed by the switch in this case? b) Consider switch MAC address learning capability, how many entries are expected in switch table? c) Show all entries of switch table. d) Consider the part "a" again, but with a fully populated switch table (all entries) instead of empty table. e) H1 is unplugged from this LAN by the system administrator. Does this change affect the switch table? Explain your answer. Host 1 Link 1 Link 4 Data-link Host 4 Host 2 Layer Link 2 Link 3 Host 3
