[ no ] bridge { bridgeGroupName | vplsName } acquire
Command introduced before JunosE Release 7.1.0.
vplsName variable added in JunosE Release 7.1.0.
Configures a bridge group or VPLS instance to acquire dynamically learned MAC
addresses. Issuing this command enables the router to forward any frames it receives
for nodes (stations) whose addresses it has learned dynamically. The no version prevents
the router or VPLS instance from acquiring dynamically learned MAC addresses, and
limits forwarding only to those nodes that have a statically configured address entry in
the forwarding table.
To configure the maximum number of MAC addresses that the router can learn, use the
bridge learn command (for a bridge group or VPLS instance) or the bridge-group learn
command (for a network interface associated with a bridge group or VPLS instance).
bridgeGroupName—Name of a bridge group specified with the bridge command
vplsName—Name of a VPLS instance created with the bridge vpls
transport-virtual-router command
