Clearing IP MLS Cache Entries
The clear mls ip command removes specific MLS cache entries. If none of the following parameters are
entered, all IP Layer 3 entries in the table are cleared:
destination or source—Describes the IP addresses of the origin and termination point being purged.
interface and its arguments—Limits the purge to entries for that interface.
macd (MAC destination) or macs (MAC source)—Specifies the source or destination parameters
to use when searching for entries to purge.
exclude protocol—Specifies all port, tcp port, or upd port and interface to allow a entries to
remain in the table.
Command Purpose
Router# show mls ip flow [tcp [any | detail |
interface type slot/port | macd
destination_mac_address | macs source_mac_address] |
udp [any | detail | interface {{vlan vlan_ID} |
{type1 slot/port} | {port-channel number}} | macd
destination_mac_address | macs source_mac_address]]
