NOTE: When the MAC learning limit (MLL) is configured as no-station-move, the MLL will be

processed as static entries internally. For static entries, the MAC address will be installed in all

port-pipes, irrespective of the VLAN membership.

Recovering from Learning Limit and Station Move Violations

After a learning-limit or station-move violation shuts down an interface, you must manually reset it.

To reset the learning limit, use the following commands.

NOTE: Alternatively, you can reset the interface by shutting it down using the shutdown command

and then re-enabling it using the no shutdown command.

NIC teaming is a feature that allows multiple network interface cards in a server to be represented by one

MAC address and one IP address in order to provide transparent redundancy, balancing, and to fully

utilize network adapter resources.

The following illustration shows a topology where two NICs have been teamed together. In this case, if

the primary NIC fails, traffic switches to the secondary NIC because they are represented by the same set

of addresses.
