MAC Address Table 

 

Syntax 

show address-table

 – displays the MAC addresses associated with ports – shows the MAC addresses 

on the ports and displays to which port the packet with the specified MAC addresses will be switched to 

 
Sometimes it is useful to see which port a specific packet will be switched to by examining the 
internal MAC address table. The 

‘show address-table’

 command displays the internal switching 

table.
