create fdbentry vlan dynamic
ExtremeWare 7.7 Command Reference Guide 415
create fdbentry vlan dynamic
For “i” series switches:
create fdbentry [<mac_address> | broadcast-mac | any-mac] vlan <vlan name>
dynamic [qosprofile <qosprofile> {ingress-qosprofile <inqosprofile>} |
ingress-qosprofile <inqosprofile> {qosprofile <qosprofile>}]
For “e” series switches:
create fdbentry [<mac_address> | any-mac] vlan <vlan name> dynamic
[ingress-qosprofile <qosprofile> {ingress-qosprofile <inqosprofile>}]
Description
Creates a permanent dynamic FDB entry, and associates it with an ingress and/or egress QoS profile.
Syntax Description
Default
N/A
Usage Guidelines
This command is used to associate QoS profiles with packets received from or destined for the specified
MAC address, while still allowing the FDB entry to be dynamically learned.
The FDB entry is not actually created until the MAC address is encountered as the source MAC address
in a packet. Thus, initially the entry may not appear in the
show fdb
output. Once the entry has been
learned, it is created as a permanent dynamic entry, designated by “dpm” in the flags field of the
show
fdb
output.
A dynamic entry is flushed and relearned (updated) when any of the following take place:
• A VLAN is deleted.
• A VLAN identifier (VLANid) is changed.
• A port mode is changed (tagged/untagged).
• A port is deleted from a VLAN.
mac_address Specifies a device MAC address, using colon separated bytes.
broadcast-mac Specifies the broadcast MAC address. May be used as an alternate to the colon-separated
byte form of the address ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff.
NOTE: This option is only available on the “i” series of switches.
any-mac Specifies the wildcard, permanent FDB entry used to give higher priority to an 802.1p packet.
vlan name Specifies a VLAN name associated with a MAC address.
dynamic Specifies that the entry will be learned dynamically.
qosprofile QoS profile associated with the destination MAC address of the egress port.
inqosprofile QoS profile associated with the source MAC address of the ingress port.
NOTE: This option is only available on the “i” series of switches.
