Changing Forwarding and Static Database Entries

The only entries that can be changed or deleted in the Filtering Database are static entries. If the entry you wish to change or delete is a forwarding entry, you must add it to the Static Table. The Static Table (Figure 6-9) is used to change a forwarding entry to a static or permanent entry, or make changes to existing static entries. To open the Static Table window:

1.Open the Filtering Database window by clicking on the Front Panel button; drag down to Filtering Database to display the Filtering Database window.

2.If the Filtering Database window displays Forwarding entries, highlight the entry you want to change and click on the Add to Static Table button.

or

If the Filtering Database window displays Static entries, highlight an entry and click on the Change button.

NOTE

It is also possible to open the Static Table in either case without highlighting an entry, by clicking on the Add To Static Table button. The static address field will appear blank. Enter the MAC address that you want to add to the Static Table.
