Static MAC Filtering

The commands in this section describe how to configure static MAC filtering. Static MAC
filtering allows you to configure destination ports for a static multicast MAC filter irrespective
of the platform.
macfilter
This command adds a static MAC filter entry for the MAC address <macaddr> on the VLAN
<vlanid>. The value of the <macaddr> parameter is a 6-byte hexadecimal number in the
format of b1:b2:b3:b4:b5:b6. The restricted MAC Addresses are: 00:00:00:00:00:00,
01:80:C2:00:00:00 to 01:80:C2:00:00:0F, 01:80:C2:00:00:20 to 01:80:C2:00:00:21, and
FF:FF:FF:FF:FF:FF. The <vlanid> parameter must identify a valid VLAN.
The number of static mac filters supported on the system is different for MAC filters where
source ports are configured and MAC filters where destination ports are configured.
• For unicast MAC address filters and multicast MAC address filters with source port lists,
the maximum number of static MAC filters supported is 20.
• For multicast MAC address filters with destination ports configured, the maximum number
of static filters supported is 256.
For example, for current platforms you can configure the following combinations:
• Unicast MAC and source port (max = 20)
• Multicast MAC and source port (max=20)
• Multicast MAC and destination port (only) (max=256)
• Multicast MAC and source ports and destination ports (max=20)
