no bridge { bridgeGroupName | vplsName } address macAddress
Command introduced before JunosE Release 7.1.0.
vplsName variable added in JunosE Release 7.1.0.
Enables a bridge group or VPLS instance to filter (forward or discard) frames based on
their MAC address. Use this command to filter frames by a specific MAC address and to
add a static (nonlearned) entry to the forwarding table. The no version removes the static
MAC address entry from the forwarding table.
NOTE: For a VPLS instance, you cannot create a static (nonlearned) MAC address entry
to forward to the VPLS virtual core interface.
