Static MAC Address

When you add a static MAC address, it remains in the switch's address table, regardless

of whether the device is physically connected to the switch. This saves the switch from

having to re-learn a device's MAC address when the disconnected or powered-off device

is active on the network again.

1. MAC Address: enter the MAC address to and from which the port should

permanently forward traffic, regardless of the device network activity.

2. Port Number: select a port number.

3. VLAN ID: If tag-based (IEEE 802.1Q) VLANs are set up on the switch, static

addresses are associated with individual VLANs. Type the VID (tag-based VLANs) to

associate with the MAC address.

4. Click

Add

button.

5. Use

Delete

button to delete unwanted MAC address.
