Static MAC Addresses
The MAC address table stores all the MAC addresses that the switch
records. The switch uses this table for forwarding traffic to specific
devices, so it does not rely solely on broadcasting traffic to every port for
communication.
There are two ways to add addresses to the MAC address table:
1
The switch can record addresses and add them dynamically.
Dynamic entries remain in the table only while the associated node
is active, and they are deleted if the node is inactive for longer than a
specified period of time (age-out time; the default is 300 seconds).
2
You can manually add MAC addresses to the table. These are called
static addresses because they remain in the table until you remove
them, even if the associated node is inactive or taken off the network.
To add a static MAC address to the address
table
1
Click the Configure Stack menu, then click Forwarding and
Filtering.
2 Click Static MAC Addresses.
3
Click Add.
4
In the MAC Address box, type the MAC address of a device on the
network. Do not include hyphens.
5
If port-based or tag-based (IEEE 802.1Q) VLANs are set up on the
switch, static MAC addresses are associated with specific VLANs.
Type the VLAN name (port-based VLANs) or VID (tag-based
VLANs) to associate with the MAC address.
6
In the Switch box, select the switch to whose ports you want to
apply the filter.
7
In the Port number box, click a port number.
For the LX and SX optional modules, the port number is MP1.
8 Click Add.
NOTE
To view the switch’s address
table, click the Monitor menu,
click Advanced, then click MAC
Address Table.
NOTE
If you want to associate a MAC
address with multiple VLANs,
you must use tag-based
VLANs.
