Description

Hello. Really enjoyed by this article.
But network part contains error.
ARP request is broadcast and has ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff as Destination MAC. Switch has only option what to do with such packet: broadcast it everywhere.
This MAC can't be stored in CAM.

And as for Hub - you can consider it as deprecated. There are no hubs nowadays.
