A switch forwards the broadcast out all the ports in same VLAN (except the port where broadcast was received). To do that it builds the Ethernet Frame and puts its MAC address as the Source MAC address (SMAC) and layer 2 broadcast address (ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff). All hosts in same VLAN received this ARP request including PC-2.

Send these pings using the Internet Control Message Protocol (ICMP) or TCP to one or any of the devices you believe to be involved. In some cases if ICMP is filtered, you can usually switch to TCP (Transmission Control Protocol) and use tcping, telnet, or another TCP-based method to check for reachability.

Internal load balancers are typically used for non-internet-facing services that can only be accessible within the virtual network. The key difference is that a public load balancer is assigned a public IP address in the frontend and receives requests via the internet. The requests are routed to endpoints in the backend.

This table is populated automatically when a switch receives a frame on a port. As a frame is received on a port, its source MAC address is noted. The switch receives the frame from PC-1 that contains the MAC address 80::01 on port 1. Port 1 is configured as a member of VLAN-11. Then PC-1 wants to communicate with PC-2.

In simple terms, Border Gateway Protocol (BGP) is the protocol that routes traffic on the Internet. Each BGP speaking organization is assigned an Autonomous System Number (ASN) that identifies them on the Internet.
