Configuration Example
Adding a Static MAC Address Entry Manually
Network requirements
The server connects to the switch through Ethernet 1/0/2. To prevent the switch from broadcasting
packets destined for the server, it is required to add the MAC address of the server to the MAC address
table of the switch, which then forwards packets destined for the server through Ethernet 1/0/2.
z
The MAC address of the server is 000f-e20f-dc71.
z
Port Ethernet 1/0/2 belongs to VLAN 1.
Configuration procedure
# Enter system view.
<Sysname> system-view
[Sysname]
# Add a MAC address, with the VLAN, ports, and states specified.
[Sysname] mac-address static 000f-e20f-dc71 interface Ethernet 1/0/2 vlan 1
# Display information about the current MAC address table.
[Sysname] display mac-address interface Ethernet 1/0/2
