I'm going with option D. It just makes the most sense in terms of how a switch should handle a unicast MAC address that's in the forwarding table.

Woah, option B is a real curveball! The device can't learn new MAC addresses if the table is full? That's a tricky one, but I don't think it's the right answer here.

I agree, option B does seem like a tricky one. But I think option C makes more sense in this context.

Haha, option C is a classic! Flooding everything, including the source port? That's hilarious, but definitely not the right answer.

I agree with Melita. Option D is the correct answer here. The switch should forward the frame as described, not discard it.

I believe C is incorrect because broadcast MAC address packets are flooded to all ports, not just the source port.

Option D seems the most logical. The switch should forward the frame to the corresponding port, excluding the source port, if the destination MAC address is unicast and found in the table.
