Chapter 1 Configuring MAC Address Attribute
1.1 MAC Address Configuration Task List
Configuring Static Mac Address
Configuring Mac Address Aging Time
Configring VLAN-shared MAC Address
Displaying Mac Address Table
Clearing Dynamic Mac Address
1.2 MAC address Configuration Task
1.2.1 Configuring Static Mac Address
Static MAC address entries are MAC address entries that do not age by the switch and
can only be deleted manually. According to the actual requirements during the
operation process, you can add and delete a static MAC address. Use the following
command in privileged level to add and delete a static MAC address.
Command
Purpose
configure
Enters the global configuration mode.
[no] mac address-table static mac-addr
vlan vlan-id interface interface-id
Adds/deletes a static MAC address entry.
Mac-addr indicates the MAC address.
Vlan-id indicates the VLAN number. Valid
value is from 1~4094.
Interface-id indicates the interface name.
exit
Returns to EXEC mode.
write
Saves configuration.
1.2.2 Configuring MAC Address Aging Time
When a dynamic MAC address is not used during the specified aging time, the switch
will delete this MAC address from the MAC address table. The aging time of the switch
MAC address can be configured in terms of needs. The default aging time is 300
seconds.
Configure the aging time of MAC address in the privileged mode as follows:
Command
Purpose
configure
Enters the global configuration mode

mac address-table aging-time [0 |
10-1000000]
Configures the aging time of MAC address.
0 indicates no-age of the MAC address.
Valid value is from 10 to 1000000 in seconds.
exit
Returns to the management mode.
write
Saves configuration.
1.2.3 Displaying MAC Address Table
Since debugging and management are required in operation process, we want to know
content of the switch MAC address table. Use the show command to display content of
the switch MAC address table.
Command
Purpose
show mac address-table {dynamic
[interface interface-id | vlan vlan-id] | static}
Displays content of the MAC address table.
Dynamic indicates the MAC address that
acquires dynamically.
Vlan-id indicates the VLAN number. Valid
value is from 1 to 4094.
Interface-id indicates the interface name.
Static indicates the static MAC address table.
1.2.4 Clearing Dynamic MAC Address
The acquired MAC addresses need to be cleared in some circumstances.
Use the following command to delete a dynamic MAC address in privileged mode:
Command
Purpose
clear mac address-table dynamic [address
mac-addr | interface interface-id | vlan
vlan-id]
Deletes a dynamic MAC address entry.
Dynamic indicates the MAC address that
dynamically acquires.
Mac-addr is the MAC address.
Interface-id indicates the interface name.
Vlan-id indicates the VLAN number. Valid
value is from 1 to 4094.
