Ethernet switch uses information of MAC address list to address and forward the message
quickly in link data layer. This article describes the configuring methods of MAC address.

5.4.1 MAC Address Table

MAC Address Table allows checking MAC address forwarding table of switch. If switch
learns a MAC address and its relevant interface number, it will create an entry in forwarding
table. These entries are used in forwarding packets. If the destination address of inbound
traffic is in the database, the packets will be directly forwarded to related interface, or they
will be forwarded to all interfaces.
