All, On the subject of turning off mac learning on a switch, I've just discovered this - an unusual way of using RSPAN to force the MAC learning off on Cisco switches: http://blog.internetworkexpert.com/2008/02/05/turning-switch-into-hub/ # Turn MAC learning on ports Fa0/1 - 3 vtp mode transparent ! vlan 555 remote-span ! interface range Fa 0/1 - 3 switchport trunk encapsulation dot1q switchport mode trunk switchport trunk allowed vlan 555 switchport trunk native vlan 555 Sam Sam Stickland wrote:

I don't believe that such a thing ever existed. Hubs that did 10/100, certainly, but I've never ever seen a hub that did gig speeds.
Depends what you mean by 'hub' I guess. I thought the term referred to a device that was half-duplex only, and had no address learning. GE has never supported half-duplex.
