4-3-7-1. Static MAC Address
When a static MAC address is added, it remains in the switch's address table,
regardless of whether the device is physically connected to the switch. This
saves the switch from having to re-learn a device's MAC address when the
device is disconnected or powered-off and then becomes active again.
The menu shows the current configured static MAC addresses. The user
can add, modify or delete a static MAC address. Once added, the MAC
address will be listed on this page.
Add static MAC address
1. Press the <Add> key. Then press the <Edit> key on this menu to add a
static MAC address.
2. Enter the MAC address to and from which the port should permanently
forward traffic, regardless of the devices network activity.
3. In the Port num field, enter the port number for the device.
