Chapter 21 Configuring Flex Links and the MAC Address-Table Move Update Feature

Configuring Flex Links and MAC Address-Table Move Update

To disable the MAC address-table move update feature, use the no mac address-table move update
transmit
interface configuration command. To display the MAC address-table move update
information, use the show mac address-table move update privileged EXEC command.

This example shows how to configure an access switch to send MAC address-table move update
messages:

Switch# configure terminal

Switch(conf)# interface gigabitethernet1/0/1

Switch(conf-if)# switchport backup interface gigabitethernet0/2 mmu primary vlan 2

Switch(conf-if)# exit

Switch(conf)# mac address-table move update transmit

Switch(conf)# end

This example shows how to verify the configuration:

Switch# show mac address-table move update

Switch-ID : 010b.4630.1780

Dst mac-address : 0180.c200.0010

Vlans/Macs supported : 1023/8320

Default/Current settings: Rcv Off/On, Xmt Off/On

Max packets per min : Rcv 40, Xmt 60

Rcv packet count : 5

Rcv conforming packet count : 5

Rcv invalid packet count : 0

Rcv packet count this min : 0

Rcv threshold exceed count : 0

Rcv last interface : Po2

Rcv last src-mac-address : 000b.462d.c502

Rcv last switch-ID : 0403.fd6a.8700

Xmt packet count : 0

Xmt packet count this min : 0
