Enabling MAC address roaming

After you enable MAC address roaming on an IRF fabric, each member switch advertises learned MAC
addresses to other member switches.
As shown in
They connect to AP C and AP D, respectively. When Client A associates with AP C, Device A learns the
MAC address of Client A and advertises it to the member switch Device B.

If Client A roams to AP D, Device B learns the MAC address of Client A and advertises it to Device A to
ensure service continuity for Client A, as shown in
