Chapter 8: MAC Address Table Commands
140 Section I: Basic Operations
ADD SWITCH FDB|FILTER
Syntax
add switch fdb|filter destaddress|macaddress= macaddress
port= port vlan= name |vid
Note
The FDB and FILTER keywords are equivalent.
Parameters
destaddress or Specifies the static unicast or multicast address to be
macaddress added to the switch’s MAC address table. The
parameters are equivalent. The address can be
entered in either of the following formats:
xxxxxxxxxxxx or xx:xx:xx:xx:xx:xx
port Specifies the port(s) where the MAC address is to be
assigned. You can specify only one port when adding
a unicast address. You can specify more than one
port when adding a multicast address.
vlan Specifies the name or VID of the VLAN where the
node designated by the MAC address is a member.
Description
This command adds static unicast and multicast MAC addresses to the
switch’s MAC address table. A MAC address added with this command is
never timed out from the MAC address table, even when the end node or,
in the case of a multicast address, the multicast application is inactive.
If you are entering a static multicast address, the address must be
assigned to the port when the multicast application is located and to the
ports where the host nodes are connected. Assigning the address to only
the port where the multicast application is located will result in the failure
of the multicast packets to be properly forwarded to the host nodes.
Examples
The following command adds the static MAC address 00:A0:D2:18:1A:11
to port 7. It assumes the port where the MAC address is to be assigned is
a member of the Default_VLAN:
add switch fdb macaddress=00A0D2181A11 port=7
vlan=default_vlan
