4.3.7.1 MFDB Table
The Multicast Forwarding Database holds the port membership information for all active multicast address entries. The key for
an entry consists of a VLAN ID and MAC address pair. Entries may contain data for more than one protocol.

Use this screen to display the MFDB information for a specific entry. To display all of the entries for a particular protocol use one
of the following menus:
。 MAC Filter Summary - Static MAC address filtering entries
。 MFDB GMRP Table - G ARP Multicast Registration Protocol entries
。 MFDB IGMP Snooping Table - IGMP Snooping entries
Selection Criteria
。 MAC Address - Enter the VLAN ID - MAC Address pair whose MFDB table entry you want displayed. Enter eight
two-digit hexadecimal numbers separated by colons, for example 00:01:23:43:45:67:89:AB. The first two two-digit
hexadecimal numbers are the VLAN ID and the remaining numbers are the MAC address. Then click on the
"Search" button. If the address exists, that entry will be displayed. An exact match is required.
