Security > MAC Address Table > Dynamic Forwarding Table
This allows the Switch’s dynamic MAC address forwarding table to be viewed. When the Switch learns an
association between a MAC address and a port number, it makes an entry into its forwarding table. These
entries are then used to forward packets through the Switch.
