If the problems are associated with the source learning on a specific NI then the limitations of the Number
of MAC addresses learned should also be considered. Current limitations are:
The total number of MAC addresses learned per switch can be viewed using the command:
-> show mac-address-table count
Mac Address Table Count:
Permanent Address Count = 0,
DeleteOnReset Address Count = 0,
DeleteOnTimeout Address Count = 0,
Dynamic Learned Address Count = 36,
Total MAC Address In Use = 36
If the problem is still not resolved then kindly contact Tech Support for further troubleshooting.
