Chapter 20 Configuring Flex Links and the MAC Address-Table Move Update Feature
Configuring Flex Links and the MAC Address-Table Move Update
To disable the MAC address-table move update feature, use the no mac address-table move update
transmit interface configuration command. To display the MAC address-table move update information,
use the show mac address-table move update privileged EXEC command.
This example shows how to configure an access switch to send MAC address-table move update
messages:
Switch(conf)# interface gigabitethernet0/1
Switch(conf-if)# switchport backup interface gigabitethernet0/2 mmu primary vlan 2
Switch(conf-if)# exit
Switch(conf)# mac address-table move update transmit
Switch(conf)# end
This example shows how to verify the configuration:
Switch# show mac-address-table move update
Switch-ID : 010b.4630.1780
Dst mac-address : 0180.c200.0010
Vlans/Macs supported : 1023/8320
Default/Current settings: Rcv Off/On, Xmt Off/On
Max packets per min : Rcv 40, Xmt 60
Rcv packet count : 5
Rcv conforming packet count : 5
Rcv invalid packet count : 0
Rcv packet count this min : 0
Rcv threshold exceed count : 0
Rcv last sequence# this min : 0
Rcv last interface : Po2
Rcv last src-mac-address : 000b.462d.c502
Rcv last switch-ID : 0403.fd6a.8700
Xmt packet count : 0
Xmt packet count this min : 0
Xmt threshold exceed count : 0
Xmt pak buf unavail cnt : 0
Xmt last interface : None
Beginning in privileged EXEC mode, follow these steps to configure a switch to get and process MAC
address-table move update messages:
Step 4 end Return to global configuration mode.
Step 5 mac address-table move update transmit Enable the access switch to send MAC address-table
move updates to other switches in the network if the
primary link goes down and the switch starts forwarding
traffic through the standby link.
Step 6 end Return to privileged EXEC mode.
Step 7 show mac address-table move update Verify the configuration.
Step 8 copy running-config startup config (Optional) Save your entries in the switch startup
configuration file.
