Exhibit.

What is me expected behavior for ARP traffic sent from H1?

Show Suggested Answer Hide Answer
Suggested Answer: C

In a VXLAN environment, unknown unicast traffic, such as ARP requests from H1, which does not have a specific destination MAC address learned by the switch A2, will be flooded out of all interfaces. This flooding behavior is necessary because A2 needs to ensure that the ARP request reaches its intended destination, which might be on any of the interfaces. It's a part of the standard behavior of switches to handle ARP traffic when the destination hardware address is unknown.

I'm not sure, but I think option D makes sense. A2 will send the ARP traffic out of ports 1/1/1 and 1/1/3.

I believe option B is correct. A2 will send the ARP traffic out of ports 1/1/1-1/1/4.

I think the expected behavior is option C. A2 will flood the ARP traffic out of all interfaces.

I believe A2 dropping the ARP traffic would not be ideal in this situation.

That could be a valid option too, as long as the traffic reaches the intended destinations.

But what if A2 only sends the ARP traffic out of specific ports like 1/1/1 and 1/1/3?

I agree with Jenifer, flooding the ARP traffic makes sense in this scenario.
