NTRY

You can associate a QoS profile with a MAC address (and VLAN) of a device that will
be dynamically learned. The FDB treats the entry like a dynamic entry (it is learned, it
can be aged out of the database, and so on). The switch applies the QoS profile as soon
as the FDB entry is learned.

To configure entries in the FDB, use the commands listed in

Table 6-1

.

Description

create fdbentry <mac_address> vlan
<name> [blackhole | <portlist> | dynamic]
{qosprofile <qosname>}

Creates an FDB entry. Specify the following:

mac_address

— Device MAC address, using

colon separated bytes.

name

— VLAN associated with MAC address.

blackhole

— Configures the MAC address as

a blackhole entry.

portlist

— Port numbers associated with

MAC address.

dynamic

— Specifies that the entry will be

learned dynamically. Used to associated a QoS
profile with a dynamically learned entry.

qosname

— QoS profile associated with MAC

address.

If more than one port number is associated with a
permanent MAC entry, packets are multicast to the
multiple destinations.

config fdb agingtime <number>

Configures the FDB aging time. The range is 15
through 1,000,000 seconds. The default value is
300 seconds. A value of 0 indicates that the entry
should never be aged out.
