MAC Address Management
Overview
From the factory, the switch is assigned a block of MAC addresses:
■for network management functions, a base MAC address is assigned to the switch
■for internal switch operations, one MAC address is assigned to each switch port
Determining the MAC Addresses
You can use the switch console to determine the base MAC address and the port MAC addresses for the switch. The methods are described in the rest of this appendix.
