Command

Description

Comment

fdb [clear|MAC addr][ports] Displays the FDB, deletes dynamic entries

from the FDB or inserts an additional static

entry in the FDB.
If a static multicast address is entered, you can

specify several ports separated by commas.
If you want to remove a static entry from the

FDB, the "fdb" command must be called

without specifying ports.
Port index 0 stands for the internal interface of

the IE Switch X-200. This is indicated in the fdb

by "C".
Example:

The command "fdb 01-08-00-99-99-99 1,2,3"

enters the MAC address 01-08-00-99-99-99 for

ports 1-3 in the FDB.

Administrator only.

Note
With SCALANCE X-200, the MAC address table is deleted within 1s.

Note
Only dynamically learned Ethernet addresses are shown in Web Based Management.

With the CLI, statically entered Ethernet addresses can also be shown.

Note
SCALANCE X-200IRT IE switches can learn up to 4000 Ethernet addresses, the other

SCALANCE X-200 IE switches up to 8000 Ethernet addresses. The entry of a learned

Ethernet address in the address table is made by the storage system which may reduce the

actual number of addresses that can be learned.
