Static MAC Forward Setup

Use these screens to configure static MAC address forwarding.

9.1 Overview

A static MAC address is an address that has been manually entered in the MAC address table.
Static MAC addresses do not age out. When you set up static MAC address rules, you are
setting static MAC addresses for a port. This may reduce the need for broadcasting.

Static MAC address forwarding together with port security allow only computers in the MAC
address table on a port to access the switch. See

Chapter 17 on page 119

for more information

on port security.

9.2 Configuring Static MAC Forwarding

the configuration screen as shown. Scroll down to the bottom of the screen to view the
