MAC Address Table Management

The MAC address table is a database used for managing the association between address information and destination ports.
XG0224 and XG2600 can learn up to 16000 entries of MAC addresses.
XG0448 / XG0440DC / XG0440DCR can learn up to 32000 entries of MAC addresses.
• Dynamic MAC address learning
The device dynamically learns MAC addresses from received frames. If MAC addresses are not refreshed before the
aging time expires, they will be removed frame MAC address table.
To disable the dynamic learning, carry out the following procedures in "admin" Operation mode.
XG2600# configure
XG2600(config)# mac learning off
XG2600(config)# commit
XG2600(config)# save
XG2600(config)# exit
To change aging time period of MAC address learning table, carry out the following procedures in "admin" Operation
mode..
XG2600# configure
XG2600(config)# mac age 1000
XG2600(config)# commit
XG2600(config)# save
XG2600(config)# exit
• Static unicast address
By registering a unicast MAC address with the MAC address table, unicast frames are forwarded to a specified port.
Static unicast addresses are not subject to MAC address removal controlled by the aging function.
To register, change or delete a static unicast address, carry out the following procedures in "admin" Operation mode.
XG2600# configure
XG2600(config)# vlan <vid> forward <count>
<dst_addr> <port>
XG2600(config)# delete vlan <vid> forward
XG2600(config)# commit
XG2600(config)# save
XG2600(config)# exit
