Nathan is testing some of his network devices. Nathan is using Macof to try and flood the ARP cache of these switches. If these switches' ARP cache is successfully flooded, what will be the result?

When a switch's CAM table is completely filled with spoofed MAC addresses, it can no longer make forwarding decisions based on known MAC-to-port mappings. As a result, the switch enters a fail-open state and floods all incoming frames to every port, effectively behaving like a network hub. This allows an attacker on the same segment to capture traffic intended for other hosts.

'Pix mode' is not a valid or recognized operational state for network switches and does not exist in standard switch behavior.

Deleting ARP cache entries describes behavior related to ARP cache exhaustion, not MAC table flooding, and is not the fail-open response switches exhibit.

Switches do not route all traffic to a broadcast address as a result of CAM table overflow; they forward unicast frames out all ports, which is functionally different from broadcasting.
