..as I understand that they do. As a frame moves across the switch, does it forward the frame leaving the source and destination mac address intact as they are or does the switch replace the frame's source mac with the mac address of the switch port that the frame is exiting the switch on?
I've been left confused since I understand that routers leave the IP addresses intact, but replace the mac addys. Knowing that switch ports have mac addresses is this the same case?
thanks
