The forwarding rate of a switch is the amount of data that can be forwarded per second, measured in Mbps (megabits per second). The forwarding rate of this Ethernet switch can be calculated by multiplying the number of ports by the speed of each port. 
24 ports x 100 Mbps per port = 2400 Mbps. Therefore, the forwarding rate of this switch is 2400 Mbps.
