Chapter6 Administering the Swi tc h Managing the MAC Address Table
Beginning in privileged EXEC mode, follow these steps to add a static address:
To remove static entries from the address table, use the no mac address-table static mac-addr vlan
vlan-id [interface interface-id] global configuration command.
This example shows how to add the static address c2f3.220a.12f4 to the MAC address table. When a
packet is received in VLAN 4 with this MAC address as its destination address, the packet isforwarded
to the specified port:
Switch(config)# mac address-table static c2f3.220a.12f4 vlan 4 interface
gigabitethernet1/0/1
Configuring Unicast MAC Address Filtering
When unicast MAC address filtering is enabled, the switch drops packets with specific source or
destination MAC addresses. This feature is disabled by default and only supports uni cast stat ic
addresses.
Follow these guidelines when using this feature:
•Multicast MAC addresses, broadcast MAC addresses, and router MAC addresses are not supported.
If you specify one of these addresses when entering the mac address-table static mac-addr vlan
vlan-id drop global configuration command, one of these messages appears:
% Only unicast addresses can be configured to be dropped
% CPU destined address cannot be configured as drop address
•Packets that are forwarded to the CPU are also not supported.
Command Purpose
Step1 configure terminal Enter global configuration mode.
Step2 mac address-table static mac-addr
vlan vlan-id interface interface-id Add a static address to the MAC address table.
•For mac-addr, specify the destination MAC unicast address to add to
the address table. Packets with this destinati on address received in the
specified VLAN are forwarded to the specified interface.
•For vlan-id, specify the VLAN for which the packet with the
specified MAC address is received. Valid VLAN IDs are 1 to 4094.
•For interface-id, specify the interface to which the received packet is
forwarded. Valid interfaces include physical ports or port channels.
For static multicast addresses, you can enter multiple interface IDs.
For static unicast addresses, you can enter only one interface at a
time, but you can enter the command multiple times wit h the sam e
MAC address and VLAN ID.
Step3 end Return to privileged EXEC mode.
Step4 show mac address-table static Verify your entries.
Step5 copy running-config startup-config (Optional) Save your entries in the configuration file.
