The following example adds a permanent entry to the FDB:
create fdbentry 00:E0:2B:12:34:56 vlan marketing port 3:4
The permanent entry has the following characteristics:
• MAC address is 00:E0:2B:12:34:56.
• VLAN name is marketing.
create fdbentry <mac_address> vlan
<name> [blackhole | <portlist> | dynamic]
{qosprofile <qosprofile>}
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.
■
qosprofile — 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.
delete fdbentry <mac_address> vlan
<name>
Deletes a permanent FDB entry.
disable learning port <portlist> Disables MAC address learning on one or more
ports for security purposes. If MAC address
learning is disabled, only broadcast traffic, EDP
traffic, and packets destined to a permanent MAC
address matching that port number, are forwarded.
The default setting is enabled.
enable learning port <portlist> Enables MAC address learning on one or more
ports.
