I'm pretty sure the switch does act as a switch, but you could not tell
by looking at Winbox, because it shows the same traffic levels on all
the switch ports at the same time.

I believe, it _can_ be used as hub by placing rules to send packets to
several ports, but in general it acts as switch.

Good idea, but don't setup a bridge, turn on the switch function. This is
done by setting a master interface on the interface.

Set 3 ports in a bridge, hook up a sniffer to one port, pass traffic
between the two other ports and see if you see traffic? That should
tell you which it is.
Would also be interesting to see the arp table in this situation...

This question came up a few weeks ago in the midst of a discussion about
the RB493/450 etc.
Someone (I don't remember who) asserted that when using the built-in
switch capabilities of these routerboards, that the actual function is like
a hub, not a switch.
Anybody know for a fact that this is the case?
What about the RBs that are actually supposed to be a switch (e.g.
RB250)?
Would be a shame if they really are acting as hubs.
