2.2 Transparent Bridging contd.
nHow does a bridge forward a frame? Two situations arise: 1)
the destination address is in the
routing table or 2) the destination address is not in the routing table.
nFor case one:
–If the destination is on the same LAN as the source it discards the
frame.
–If the destination is not on the same LAN it forwards the frame to
the appropriate outgoing port.
