What does a switch do when a frame is received on an interface and the destination hardware address is unknown or not in the filter table?

Correct Answer: Floods the network with the frame looking for the device

Explanation:

Switches flood all frames that have an unknown destination address. If a device answers the frame, the switch will update the MAC address table to reflect the location of the device.
