Enabling/Disabling a Port Mapping Session

Note. You must delete any attached ports with the port mapping user-port network-port command
before you can delete a port mapping session.
Enabling/Disabling a Port Mapping Session
By default, the port mapping session will be disabled. The following subsections describe how to enable
and disable the port mapping session with the

Enabling a Port Mapping Session

To enable a port mapping session, enter port mapping followed by the session ID and enable.

-> port mapping 5 enable

Disabling a Port Mapping Session

To disable a port mapping session, enter port mapping followed by the session ID and disable.
For example, to disable the port mapping session 5, you would enter:
-> port mapping 5 disable

Disabling the Flooding of Unknown Unicast Traffic

By default, unknown unicast traffic is flooded to the user ports of a port mapping session from all the
switch ports, not just the network ports for the session. To disable this flooding, you would enter:
-> port mapping 5 unknown-unicast-flooding disable

Configuring a Port Mapping Direction

By default, port mapping sessions are bidirectional. The following subsections describe how to configure
and restore the directional mode of a port mapping session with the

Configuring Unidirectional Port Mapping

To configure a unidirectional port mapping session, enter port mapping followed by the session ID and
unidirectional. For example, to configure the direction of a port mapping session 6 as unidirectional, you
