Static MAC Forward Setup

Use these screens to configure static MAC address forwarding.

8.1 Static MAC Forwarding Overview

A static MAC address is an address that has been manually entered in the MAC address
learning table. Static MAC addresses do not age out. When you set up static MAC address
rules, you are setting static MAC addresses for a port. This may reduce the need for
broadcasting.

8.2 Configuring Static MAC Forwarding

Click Advanced Applications > Static MAC Forwarding in the navigation panel to display
the configuration screen as shown. Scroll down to the bottom of the screen to view the
summary table for the settings.
