Which attack floods a switch's MAC address table to force it to broadcast frames out all ports?

b.DNS poisoning
c.Smurf attack
d.MAC flooding

MAC flooding overwhelms a switch's MAC address table, causing it to fail open and flood frames out all ports so an attacker can capture traffic. Port security limiting MAC addresses per port mitigates this. It exploits the finite size of the CAM table.
