v6.41rc1+ bridges and broadcast

Sun Mar 21, 2021 12:15 am

Good day forum!
Sorry for maybe newbie question but i need to know how some stuff works:

As documentation says : When a switch receives a broadcast, it forwards it to each port on the switch except the incoming port.
Does new Mikrotik bridge replacement for switch chips do the same or i need to write filter rule to prevent source MAC broadcast packet flooding back?????

Update you firmware to the latest long term version then we can talk.
To answer the question, should not be an issue.
