Ok, I'm suffering from a brain cloud at the moment.  So, willing to suffer
the comic flames and arrows, I ask the following question:

Assume we have three switches: A, B, and C.  A has a fast ethernet
connection to B and another to C.  B and C are not directly connected.  At
this point, these are not trunk lines and they are in the same VLAN.  That
means only traffic destined for B goes down the line to B, and traffic
destined for C goes to C.

Now, if I were to make both of those connections trunk lines, either ISL or
802.1q, would I still have only B-destined traffic going to B or would that
trunk be passing all traffic for that entire VLAN up to B even though
C-destined traffic is a waste of bandwidth on the B trunk?

Thanks for the help, as always!
