11.2.5.12 set mac
Use this command to set the timeout period for aging learned MAC entries, to define what ports a
multicast address can be dynamically learned on or flooded to, and to make a static entry into the
filtering database(s).
set mac [agetime time] | [multicast mac-address vlan-id [port-string] {append |
clear}] | [unicast mac-address fid receive-port [ageable]]
Syntax Description
Command Defaults
If port-string is not defined with the set mac multicast command then it will apply
to all ports.
If the set mac unicast command is used without the ageable parameter the entry
will be permanent.
Command Mode
Read-Write.
Example
This example shows how to set the MAC timeout period to 600 seconds:
agetime time Specifies the timeout period in seconds for aging learned
MAC addresses. Valid values are 10 to 65535.
multicast
mac-address vlan-id
[port-string]
{append | clear}]
This command allows you to limit specific layer two
multicast addresses (mac-address) to specific ports
(port-string) within a VLAN (vlan-id). You can later
come back and append or clear ports from the list of
ports the multicast MAC address is allowed to be
dynamically learned on or flooded to.
unicast
mac-address fid
receive-port
[ageable]
This command allows you to statically enter a unicast
MAC address (mac-address) into a filtering database (
fid)
for a single port (receive-port). This entry will be either
permanent or ageable where it will age out same as a
dynamically learned MAC address.
