On the cisco on the trunk port:
interface GigabitEthernet1/0/1
switchport trunk encapsulation dot1q
switchport trunk allowed vlan 1,20,100,616
switchport mode trunk
!
interface Vlan1
ip address 192.168.0.126 255.255.255.0
On the upstream switch:
sh mac-address-table int et 1/9 
Read mac address table....

What you wrote the IP address has nothing to do with the mac table
look for the handle in the arp table

The poppy table is constructed differently for each vlan. the vlanes provide the necessary isolation.
so it makes no sense to assign different poppies to the same physical interface in different domains
although many manufacturers do

Apparently you didn't understand the question.
The question is not why the poppy is the same, but why is it even present in other domains?
If it were a D-Link, it would only shine its mac in the control room.

Above, Andrey Barbolin has already answered why. Per VLAN ST
