MAC Address Types
There are four types of MAC addresses that are the result of or involved with the LPS port configuration
and operation:
•
Static
. A user-configured MAC address on the LPS port.
•
Pseudo Static
. A dynamically learned MAC address that is treated the same as a regular static address
(will not age out). However, pseudo-static MAC addresses are not saved in the running configuration
of the switch.
•
Dynamic Brdiged
. MAC address that are dynamically learned as bridged addresses up to the maxi-
mum number of brdiged addresses allowed on the LPS port. When this maximum is reached, subse-
quent addresses are dynamically learned as filtered MAC addresses.
•
Dynamic Filtered
. MAC addresses that are dynamically learned as filtered address up to the maxi-
mum number of filtered addresses allowed on the LPS port.
How LPS Authorizes Source MAC Addresses
When a packet is received on a port that has LPS enabled, switch software checks specific criteria to deter-
mine if the source MAC address contained in the packet is allowed on the port. The following chart
depicts the flow of the MAC address as various LPS rules are applied to determine whether or not the
address is learned on the port and the state of the address on that port (bridged or filtered):
