Location—One of the following two types of entries:
ENET <slot/port>—Ethernet slot and port number. This type of entry is
displayed when the MAC address is reached through that port.
VC <non-Ethernet side of VC data>—The card type, slot and port number,
and other virtual circuit parameters, such as DLCI number, for the non-Ethernet
side of the virtual circuit. This type of entry is displayed when the MAC address
is reached through that virtual circuit.
Age—The age of the station address entry in the List Forwarding Table. You can
set this parameter to Permanent or a specified number of seconds. The system
uses the Age parameter to delete station address entries when they have had no
traffic for the specified period of time.
Constructing the Bridge Static Table
The Bridge Static Table is a list of destination MAC addresses that you want to
maintain in the List Forwarding Table and do not want to be purged by the aging
timer. The Disp. column for these addresses in the Forwarding Table reads Static to
indicate that they will remain in the Forwarding Table until they are manually
deleted from the Static Table.
To construct the Bridge Static Table, follow these steps:
1 From the Bridge menu, select [6] Static Table to display the Bridge Static Table
menu, shown in Figure 124. From this menu, you can view the Static table and
add and delete entries from it.

Table. This address will not be purged when the List Forwarding Table is aged. The
