Parameters

address table. Multicast MAC addresses are not permitted. The
address must be specified in the following format: xx:xx:xx:xx:xx:xx
forward
Forwards frames containing the MAC address as a destination
address.
discard
Discards frames containing the MAC address as a destination
address.
port_id
Specifies the port ID from which the switch forwards frames
containing the MAC address as a destination address.
vid
Specifies the ID number of the VLAN that the node of the MAC
address is a member of. The range is 1 to 4,094.
Mode
Global Configuration mode
Description
Use this command to add a MAC address to the switch’s MAC address
table statically. A static MAC address is never timed out from the MAC
address table, even when the end node is inactive. With this command,
you can add only one static MAC address at a time.
The forward and discard keywords specify whether the switch forwards or
discards frames containing the specified MAC address as a destination
address. When you specify the discard keyword, the switch discards
frames containing the MAC address as a designation address and does
not forward the frames from the port. However, you must specify the
port_id parameter in this command.
