Configuring MAC Address Table Management

Disabling MAC Address
Learning
To gain better control over network security, you can use the following commands
to disable the current port from learning MAC addresses.
n
■
Do not use the
mac-address mac-learning disable
command together with
related 802.1x commands in Ethernet port view.
■
Do not use the
mac-address mac-learning disable
command together with
the
mac-address max-mac-count
command.
Configuring MAC
Address Learning
Synchronization
Between Module Chips
If there are multiple chips on a module, each chip can learn only the MAC
addresses of the data flow it handles. If a chip receives a packet whose MAC
address entry is stored in another chip, it broadcasts the packet.
You can configure MAC address learning synchronization between module chips
to synchronize MAC address entries between chips. This reduces broadcasting of
unknown packets, lowers switch processing load, and improves network
utilization.
Disabling HiGig Ports
from Learning MAC
Addresses
The Switch 7750 learn MAC address entries in one of the following ways:
■
Through MAC address learning on the port
■
By synchronizing MAC address entries between chips
