Managing the MAC Address Table
Removing Dynamic Address Entries
To remove all dynamic entries, use the
clear mac address-table dynamic
command in privileged EXEC
mode. You can also remove a specific MAC address (
clear mac address-table dynamic address
mac-address
), remove all addresses on the specified physical port or port channel (
clear mac
address-table dynamic
interface
interface-id
), or remove all addresses on a specified VLAN (
clear
mac address-table dynamic vlan
vlan-id
).
To verify that dynamic entries have been removed, use the
show mac address-table dynamic
privileged
EXEC command.
Configuring MAC Address Change Notification Traps
MAC address change notification tracks users on a network by storing the MAC address change activity.
When the switch learns or removes a MAC address, an SNMP notification trap can be sent to the NMS.
If you have many users coming and going from the network, you can set a trap-interval time to bundle
the notification traps to reduce network traffic. The MAC notification history table stores MAC address
activity for each port for which the trap is set. MAC address change notifications are generated for
dynamic and secure MAC addresses. Notifications are not generated for self addresses, multicast
addresses, or other static addresses.
Beginning in privileged EXEC mode, follow these steps to configure the switch to send MAC address
change notification traps to an NMS host:
Command
Purpose
Step 1
configure terminal
Enter global configuration mode.
Step 2
snmp-server host
host-addr
{
traps
|
informs
} {
version
{
1
|
2c
|
3
}}
community-string notification-type
Specify the recipient of the trap message.
•
For
host-addr
, specify the name or address of the
NMS.
•
Specify
traps
(the default) to send SNMP traps
to the host. Specify
informs
to send SNMP
informs to the host.
•
Specify the SNMP version to support. Version 1,
the default, is not available with informs.
•
For
community-string,
specify the string to send
with the notification operation. Though you can
set this string by using the
snmp-server host
command, we recommend that you define this
string by using the
snmp-server community
command before using the
snmp-server host
command.
•
For
notification-type
, use the
mac-notification
keyword.
Step 3
snmp-server enable traps mac-notification change
Enable the switch to send MAC address change
notification traps to the NMS.
Step 4
mac address-table notification change
Enable the MAC address change notification feature.
