6.4.2 MAC configuration
MAC (Access Control Media) address is the network equipment of the hardware logo, the switch
according to the MAC address of the packet forwarding. MAC address is unique, which ensures the
correct forwarding of packets. Each switch is maintained with a MAC address table. In this table, the MAC
address and the port of the switch are corresponding. When the switch receives a data frame, the data
frame is determined according to the MAC address table, and the data frame is filtered or forwarded to
the corresponding port of the switch. MAC address table is the basis and premise for the switch to
achieve fast forwarding.
6.4.2.1 MAC configuration
Each port of the switch has the function of automatically learning the address, and the source address
(the source MAC address and the switch port number) of the transmitting and receiving frame of the port
will be stored in the address table. Aging time is a parameter that affects the learning process of the
switch. The default is 300 seconds. From an address record to join the address table since the beginning
of time, if in the aging time within the port does not receive the source address for the MAC address of the
frame, then these addresses will from a dynamic forwarding address table (from the source MAC address,
destination MAC addresses and their corresponding switch port number) is removed.
In the menu bar, click "main menu", " layer 2 configuration", "MAC configuration", "MAC configuration"
into MAC configuration interface, the interface can be set dynamic MAC address aging time and view the
MAC address of the static and dynamic information.
