11.2.5.12 set mac
Use this command to set the timeout period for aging learned MAC entries, to define what ports a
multicast address can be dynamically learned on or flooded to, and to make a static entry into the
filtering database(s).
set mac
[
agetime time
] | [
multicast
mac-address
vlan-id
[
port-string
] {
append
|
clear
}] | [
unicast
mac-address fid receive-port
[
ageable
]]
Syntax Description
Command Defaults
If port-string is not defined with the
set mac multicast
command then it will apply
to all ports.
If the
set mac unicast
command is used without the
ageable
parameter the entry
will be permanent.
Command Mode
Read-Write.
Example
This example shows how to set the MAC timeout period to 600 seconds:
agetime time
Specifies the timeout period in seconds for aging learned
MAC addresses. Valid values are
10
to
65535
.
multicast
mac-address
vlan-id
[
port-string
]
{
append
|
clear
}]
This command allows you to limit specific layer two
multicast addresses (
mac-address
) to specific ports
(
port-string
) within a VLAN (
vlan-id
). You can later
come back and
append
or
clear
ports from the list of
ports the multicast MAC address is allowed to be
dynamically learned on or flooded to.
unicast
mac-address fid
receive-port
[
ageable
]
This command allows you to statically enter a unicast
MAC address (
mac-address
) into a filtering database (
fid
)
for a single port (
receive-port
). This entry will be either
permanent or
ageable
where it will age out same as a
dynamically learned MAC address.
