clear security l2-restrict

Removes one or more MAC addresses from the list of destination MAC addresses to which clients in a VLAN are
allowed to send traffic at Layer 2.
Syntax
clear security l2-restrict vlan vlan-id
[permit-mac mac-addr [mac-addr] | all]
vlan-id
permit-mac mac-addr
[mac-addr]
all
Defaults If you do not specify a list of MAC addresses or all, all addresses are removed.
Access Enabled.
History Introduced in WSS Software Version 4.1.
Usage If you clear all MAC addresses, Layer 2 forwarding is no longer restricted in the VLAN. Clients
within the VLAN will be able to communicate directly.
There can be a slight delay before functions such as pinging between clients become available again after Layer 2
restrictions are lifted. Even though packets are passed immediately once Layer 2 restrictions are gone, it can take 10
seconds or more for upper-layer protocols to update their ARP caches and regain their functionality.
To clear the statistics counters without removing any MAC addresses, use the clear security l2-restrict counters
command instead.
Examples The following command removes MAC address aa:bb:cc:dd:ee:ff from the list of addresses to
which clients in VLAN abc_air are allowed to send traffic at Layer 2:
WSS# clear security l2-restrict vlan abc_air permit-mac aa:bb:cc:dd:ee:ff
success: change accepted.
