Syntax

Default
The maximum number of MAC addresses that can be learned on an interface varies with the card
model.
Views

Predefined user roles

Parameters
count: Sets the maximum number of MAC addresses that can be learned on an interface. The value
range is 0 to 1048576. When the argument takes 0, the interface is not allowed to learn MAC
addresses.
Usage guidelines
This command limits the number of MAC address entries for a device. As the MAC address table is
growing, the forwarding performance of your device may degrade. When the number of MAC
address entries learned by an interface reaches the limit, the interface stops learning MAC address
entries.
Examples
# Configure GigabitEthernet 3/0/1 to learn up to 600 MAC address entries.
<Sysname> system-view
[Sysname] interface GigabitEthernet 3/0/1
[Sysname-GigabitEthernet3/0/1] mac-address max-mac-count 600
