Address Table Commands

bridge address

The bridge address VLAN Interface Configuration mode command adds a static MAC-layer station source address to the bridge table. To delete the MAC address, use the no form of the bridge address command (using the no form of the command without specifying a MAC address deletes all static MAC addresses belonging to this VLAN).

Syntax

bridge address mac-address {ethernet interface port-channel port-channel-number} [permanent delete-on-reset delete-on-timeout secure]

no bridge address [mac-address]

mac-address—A valid MAC address in the format of xx:xx:xx:xx:xx:xx.

interface—A valid Ethernet port.

port-channel-number—A valid port-channel number.

permanent—The address can only be deleted by the no bridge address command.

delete-on-reset—The address is deleted after reset.

delete-on-timeout—The address is deleted after "age out" time has expired.

secure—The address is deleted after the port changes mode to unlock learning (no port security command). This parameter is only available when the port is in learning locked mode.

Default Configuration

No static addresses are defined. The default mode for an added address is permanent.

Command Mode

Interface configuration (VLAN) mode

User Guidelines

There are no user guidelines for this command.

Example

The following example adds a permanent static MAC-layer station source address 3aa2.64b3.a245 on port g8 to the bridge table.
