Static Forwarding Table - D-Link DES-3624 Series User Manual

Lock Address Table(Stop Learning) Mostly used for security purposes, when the forwarding table is
locked the Switch will no longer learn the MAC addresses for new hosts. If your network configuration
doesn't change, locking the forwarding table helps keep intruders off your network since any packet coming
from an unknown source address will be dropped by the Switch.
Address Look-up Mode Select from: Level 0, Level 1, Level 2, Level 3, Level 4, Level 5, Level 6, or Level 7.
MAC Address Age-out Time (sec.) Enter the desired MAC address aging time in this field (10 to 9999
seconds).

Static Forwarding Table

MAC forwarding allows the Switch to permanently forward outbound traffic to specific destination MAC
addresses over a specified port. You can also use this feature to restrict inbound traffic based on source MAC
addresses.
