Logging and Network Management Command Set
Managing Switch Network Addresses
11-48 Matrix E1 Series (1G58x-09 and 1H582-xx) Configuration Guide
Syntax Description
Command Defaults
None.
Command Type
Switch command.
Command Mode
Read-Write.
mac-random Sets the mode to MAC random algorithm, which is best
used by networks having a single MAC per VLAN that do
not need the VLAN ID to be used in Layer 2 lookups.
When running in this mode, the filter database lookup
algorithm is optimized for networks with MAC addresses
that vary by vendor.
mac-sequential Sets the mode to MAC sequential algorithm, which is best
used by networks having a single MAC per VLAN that do
not need the VLAN ID to be used in Layer 2 lookups.
When running in this mode the, filter database lookup
algorithm is optimized for networks with MAC addresses
that very by the non-vendor bytes of the address.
mac-vid-random Sets the mode to mac-vid-random algorithm, which is best
used by networks where a single MAC can be on more than
one VLAN and it is necessary for the VLAN ID to be used
in the Layer 2 lookup. When running in this mode, the filter
database lookup algorithm is optimized for networks with
MAC addresses that vary by vendor.
mac-vid-
sequential Sets the mode to mac-vid-sequential algorithm, which is
best used by networks where a single MAC can be on more
than one VLAN and it is necessary for the VLAN ID to be
used in the Layer 2 lookup. When running in this mode the,
filter database lookup algorithm is optimized for networks
with MAC addresses that very by the non-vendor bytes of
the address. This is the device’s default setting.
