Configuring Static MAC Addresses
Static MAC addresses are assigned to a specific physical interface and VLAN on
the device. If that address is detected on another interface, it is ignored, and is not
written to the address table.
To define a static address:
STEP 1 Click MAC Address Tables > Static Addresses.
The Static Addresses page
contains the currently defined static addresses.
STEP 2 Click Add.
STEP 3 Enter the pa rameters.
•VLAN ID—Select the VLAN ID for the port.
•MAC Address—Enter the interface MAC address.
•Interface—Select an interface (port, or LAG) for the entry.
•Status—Select how the entry is treated. The options are:
-Permanent—The system never removes this MAC address. If the static
MAC address is saved in the Startup Configuration, it is retained after
rebooting.
-Delete on reset—The static MAC address is deleted when the device is
reset.
-Delete on timeout—The MAC address is deleted when aging occurs.
-Secure—The MAC address is secure when the interface is in classic
locked mode (see Configuring Port Security).
STEP 4 Click Apply. A new entry appears in the table.
