MAC address table configuration example

Network requirements

Host A (000f-e235-dc71) is connected to interface Ten-GigabitEthernet 1/0/1 of Device and belongs to

VLAN 1. To prevent MAC address spoofing, add a static entry for Host A in the MAC address table of

Device.
Host B (000f-e235-abcd), which once behaved suspiciously on the network, also belongs to VLAN 1. For
security, add a blackhole MAC address entry for Host B, so that all frames destined for the host will be

dropped.
Set the aging timer for dynamic MAC address entries to 500 seconds.

Configuration guidelines

Follow these guidelines while editing the file /etc/syslog.conf:

Comments must be on a separate line and must begin with a pound sign (#).

No redundant spaces are allowed after the file name.

The logging facility name and the severity level specified in the /etc/syslog.conf file must be
identical to those configured on the device by using the info-center loghost and info-center source

commands. Otherwise, the log information might not be output correctly to the log host.
