All MAC address entries
•
All MAC address entries for a specified interface module
•
All MAC address entries for a specified Ethernet port

All MAC address entries for a specified VLAN

A specified MAC address entry in all VLANs
For example, to remove entries for the MAC address 000d.cb80.00d in all VLANs, enter the
following command at the Privileged EXEC level of the CLI:
BigIron RX# clear mac-address 000d.cb80.00d0

If you enter the clear mac-address command without any parameters, the software removes all
MAC entries.
Use the <mac-address> parameter to remove a specified MAC address from all VLANs. Specify the
MAC address in the following format: HHHH.HHHH.HHHH.

port. For the <slot> parameter, enter the number of the chassis slot in which the Ethernet interface
