address entries. The key for an entry consists of a VLAN ID and MAC address pair. Entries may contain
data for more than one protocol.
Configurable Data
MAC Address - Enter the VLAN ID - MAC Address pair whose MFDB table entry you want
displayed. Enter eight two-digit hexadecimal numbers separated by colons, for example
00:01:23:43:45:67:89:AB. The first two two-digit hexadecimal numbers are the VLAN ID and the
remaining numbers are the MAC address. Then click on the "Search" button. If the address exists,
that entry will be displayed. An exact match is required.
