the Dynamic MAC Address Table is sorted. The address

Admin > Dynamic Address
The Dynamic Address Table contains the MAC addresses
learned by monitoring the source address for traffic
entering the switch. When the destination address for
inbound traffic is found in the database, the packets
intended for that address are forwarded directly to the
associated port. Otherwise, the traffic is flooded to all
ports.
Admin > Dynamic Address
The Dynamic Address screen contains parameters for
querying information in the Dynamic MAC Address Table,
including the interface type, MAC addresses, VLAN, and
table storing. The Dynamic MAC Address table contains
information about the aging time before a dynamic MAC
address is erased, and includes parameters for querying
and viewing the Dynamic MAC Address table. The Dynamic
MAC Address table contains address parameters by which
packets are directly forwarded to the ports. The Dynamic
Address Table can be sorted by interface, VLAN, and MAC
Address.
Address Aging Specifies the amount of time (in seconds)
the MAC address remains in the Dynamic MAC Address
table before it times out, if no traffic from the source is
detected. The default value is 300 seconds.
Clear Table If checked, clears the MAC address table.
