Re: Mac address daily limit

Well there's got to be a finite amount of bandwidth on a wire with a given standard, and depending on the users you could cover more or less.

I'm not overly surprised it does get split out into multiple places. It makes sense to catch those oddball places out on a limb with a handful of connections, or use spare capacity in a segment to cover a new housing estate on the other side of town for example. It's probably a form of VLANning.
