Browse Address Table

Description

Use this screen to sort through the switch’s MAC address table and view
the addresses the switch has learned. The switch uses this table when
making forwarding decisions to avoid broadcasting traffic to every port.

VLAN (port-based)/VLAN ID (tag-based): Displays VLANs. When the
switch is running port-based or tag-based VLANs, the address table
associates MAC addresses with specific VLANs. Use

z to select a

VLAN.

Filter: Determines how to view the address table (press

z). You can

sort by <MAC address> or by <Port>.

Enter MAC address: Searches for a specific MAC address in the switch’s
table.

Port number: Selects a port (press

z). This displays the MAC

addresses seen on the specified port, which is useful for monitoring which
ports a device is using, or which devices are using one port.

DISPLAY: Displays the results after you enter a MAC address or choose a
port.
