Syntax: show tasks
Examine the CPU Usage (%) field to determine the percentage of management module CPU used by each task.
NOTE
The total CPU usage may not add up to 100 percent. The total may not include resources used by the management processes.
A problem could exist If the CPU usage is distributed unevenly to one task, other than the idle task, for a prolonged period. If this
situation occurs, contact Brocade Technical Support for assistance.
Removing MAC address entries
You can remove the following learned MAC address entries from the system MAC address table:
∙ All MAC address entries
∙ All MAC address entries for a specified interface module
∙ All MAC address entries for a specified Ethernet port
∙ All MAC address entries for a specified VLAN
∙ A specified MAC address entry in all VLANs
For example, to remove entries for the MAC address 000d.cb80.00d in all VLANs, enter the following command at the Privileged
EXEC level of the CLI.
device# clear mac-address 000d.cb80.00d0
Syntax: clear mac-address
mac-address
[ ethernet
slot-num/port-num
] | [ module
slot-num
] | vlan
number
∙ If you enter the clear mac-address command without any parameters, the software removes all MAC entries.
∙ Use the mac-address parameter to remove a specified MAC address from all VLANs. Specify the MAC address in the
following format: HHHH.HHHH.HHHH.
∙ Use the ethernet
slot-num
or
port-num
parameter to remove all MAC addresses for a specified Ethernet port. For the
slot
parameter, enter the number of the device slot in which the Ethernet interface module is installed. For the
port
parameter, enter
the Ethernet port for which to remove all MAC addresses.
∙ Use the module
slot-num
parameter to remove all MAC addresses for an interface module in a specified device slot.
