MAC learning, which enhances the efciency of packets forwarding. The MAC
addresses already congured in static MAC address table cannot be added to
ltering MAC address table.
The static MAC address table capacity of different type of switches may be
different. Appendix C lists the difference.
4.3.4 Filtering MAC Address Table
A ltering MAC address excludes a device from being accessed through the
switch. All the packets taking the ltering MAC address as their destination will
be discarded. The ltering MAC address is applicable to all the switch ports.
The configured filtering MAC address can neither be added to static MAC
address table, nor be bound by switch ports.
4.3.5 Dynamic Binding
A switch port in dynamic binding state can bind a specied number of MAC
address. Once the specied number is reached, the port transfers into secure
state automatically and stops binding MAC addresses. The bound MAC
addresses won’t age, they can be removed by disabling the dynamic binding
or rebooting the switch.
The function of dynamic binding causes the switch port to acknowledge the
devices connecting to it after startup, and stores the connections (through
binding MAC addresses) in static state. This enhances the efficiency of
packets forwarding and limits the connecting device number of the switch port.
Reboot the switch after conguring the dynamic binding function. The switch
will acknowledge and bind the latest connecting devices. If the switch is
managed through remote connection, please add the MAC address of the
