To create a static entry in the unicast MAC address forwarding table
(database)
create fdb [name <vlan_name 8> | vlanid <VIDlist 1-4094>]
<macaddr> port <port>
The create fdb command creates a static entry in the Switch's
unicast MAC address forwarding database.
name <vlan_name 8> − The name of the VLAN on which the MAC
address resides.
vlanid <VIDlist 1-4094> − The VLAN ID on which the MAC address
resides.
<macaddr> − The MAC address to be added to the forwarding table.
port <port> − The port number corresponding to the MAC
destination address. The Switch will always forward traffic to the
specified device through this port.
Only administrator-level users can issue this command.
