Viewing the Port Address Table
The IP Address Monitoring Table is a table of node addresses that the IntraStack automatically builds by listening to and learning the informa- tion that is broadcast when a new node logs on.
The IntraStack checks the source and destination addresses as packets pass through it and records the source address information in the table.
The IntraStack uses the information in this table to decide whether a frame should be forwarded or filtered. Each entry consists of the MAC address of the device and an identifier for the port on which it was received.
