ICND1, Todd Lammle's book, lab 7, Q6, Chap 7

The answer was missing from the answer sheet I printed out from the ebook.

The question was "If a switch gets a frame that's a broadcast what does it do with it?"

I wrote "it sends it out to all ports behinds the source port because its still one large broadcast domain."

Just wanted to double check if this was correct.
