2.5.6.2. Static MAC Address
When you add a static MAC address, 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 disconnected or powered-off device is active on the network again.

forward traffic, regardless of the device’s network activity.
3. In the Port Number box, enter a port number.
4. If tag-based (IEEE 802.1Q) VLANs are set up on the switch, static addresses are associated with
individual VLANs. Type the VID (tag-based VLANs) to associate with the MAC address.
