Syntax: show port-access mac-based clients [port-list]

Displays the session status, name, and address for each MAC-authenticated client on the switch. The IP address displayed is taken from the DHCP binding table (learned through the DHCP Snooping feature).

If a MAC-authenticated client uses an IPv6 address, n/a - IPv6 is displayed.

If DHCP snooping is enabled but no MAC-to-IP address binding for a client is found in the DHCP binding table, n/a

-no info is displayed.
