Chapter 2 Commands for the Catalyst 6500 Series SSL Services Module

standby use-bia

standby use-bia

To configure HSRP to use the burned-in address of the interface as its virtual MAC address instead of the preassigned MAC address (on Ethernet and FDDI) or the functional address (on Token Ring), use the standby use-biacommand. Use the no form of this command to restore the default virtual MAC address.

standby use-bia [scope interface] no standby use-bia

Syntax Description	scope interface	(Optional) Specifies that this command is configured only for the subinterface
		on which it was entered, instead of the major interface.

Command History

HSRP uses the preassigned MAC address on Ethernet and FDDI or the functional address on Token Ring.

Subinterface configuration submode

Release	Modification
SSL Services Module	Support for this command was introduced on the Catalyst 6500 series
Release 2.1(1)	switches.
SSL Services Module	The command mode for this command was changed from Proxy-VLAN to
Release 3.1(1)	Subinterface.

Usage Guidelines You can configure multiple standby groups on an interface when you enter the standby use-biacommand. Hosts on the interface must have a default gateway configured. We recommend that you set the no ip proxy-arpcommand on the interface. We also recommend that you configure the standby use-biacommand on a Token Ring interface if there are devices that reject ARP replies with source hardware addresses that are set to a functional address.

When HSRP runs on a multiple-ring, source-routed bridging environment and the HRSP routers reside on different rings, configuring the standby use-biacommand can prevent confusion about the routing information field (RFI).

Without the scope interface keywords, the standby use-biacommand applies to all subinterfaces on the major interface. You cannot enter the standby use-biacommand both with and without the scope interface keywords at the same time.

Examples This example shows how to map the virtual MAC address to the virtual IP address:

ssl-proxy (config-subif)# standby use-biassl-proxy (config-subif)#
