Question:
What is one advantage of using the cut-through switching method instead of the store-and-forward switching method?

• has a positive impact on bandwidth by dropping most of the invalid frames
• makes a fast forwarding decision based on the source MAC address of the frame
• has a lower latency appropriate for high-performance computing applications​
• provides the flexibility to support any mix of Ethernet speeds

Explanation: Cut-through switching provides lower latency switching for high-performance computing (HPC) applications. Cut-through switching allows more invalid frames to cross the network than store-and-forward switching. The cut-through switching method can make a forwarding decision as soon as it looks up the destination MAC address of the frame.
