Configuring MAC Table

Configuring MAC Address Aging
Time
MAC address aging time setup affects the switch performance.
If the set MAC address aging time is too short, switch deletes many
valid MAC address table entries that cause the switch broadcast
not to find the destination MAC address message. This occupies
the bandwidth of the switch.
If the set MAC address aging time is too long, the switch may
save a lot of outdated MAC address table entries thus exhaust MAC
address table resources, which may cause that new MAC address
cannot be added to MAC address table. Consequently, forwarding
will also be affected.
To set MAC address aging time, use the following command.
Note:
By default, aging time of MAC address on ZXR10 8900 series switch
is 300s, and configurable range is 10s~630s.

Burning MAC Address

When the network is stable after a running period, position of de-
vice connected with switch port is fixed that is, a port correspond-
ing to MAC address in switch MAC address table is fixed. MAC
address can be burnt.
Burning MAC address is to convert all dynamic MAC addresses in
the MAC address table into static; converted address will not take
part in aging. At the same time, if the data frame whose source
MAC address is converted MAC address appears in other ports, the
switch will not relearn.
To burn MAC address, use the following command.
