Configuring Static Unicast Addresses

7.16 CONFIGURING STATIC UNICAST ADDRESSES

Use the Static Unicast Address Table Configuration screen (Figure 7-21) to manually configure host MAC addresses in the unicast table. You can use this screen to associate a MAC address with a specific VLAN ID and switch port.

You can also lock a port to a particular MAC Address or the first MAC address received by the port to prevent other users (MAC Addresses) from using that port. When a port is locked, broadcast and multicast packets are processed over the link as well as the locked MAC address packets.
