3.7Unicast Forwarding Database Configuration
The Unicast Forwarding Database Configuration Menu allows the user to view and search for addresses in the MAC (Media Access Control) Forwarding Table on the switch. It also provides options for displaying MAC addresses and IP/MAC binding by individual port or by VLAN.
The MAC Forwarding Table is a table of node addresses that the switch automatically builds by “learning.” It performs this task by monitoring the packets that pass through the switch, checking the source and destination addresses, and then recording the source address information in the table.
The switch uses the information in this table to decide whether a frame should be forwarded to a particular destination port or “flooded” to all ports other than to the received port. Each entry consists of three parts: the MAC address of the device, the port number on which it was received, and the VLAN number.
Note: The MAC address table can hold a maximum of 8,192 entries.
