The following is an example of the CLI commands:
Dynamic Addresses
The Dynamic Address Table contains the MAC addresses acquired by
monitoring the source addresses of traffic entering the switch. When the
destination address for inbound traffic is found in the database, the packets
intended for that address are forwarded directly to the associated port.
Otherwise, the traffic is flooded to all ports in the VLAN of the frame.
To prevent the table from overflowing and to make room for new addresses,
an address is deleted from the table if no traffic is received from a dynamic
MAC address for a certain period. This period of time is called the aging
interval.
To configure dynamic addresses:
1 Click Switching > Address Tables > Dynamic Address Table in the tree
view to display the Dynamic Address Table page.
The current address table is displayed along with other parameters.
show mac address-table
[dynamic|static|secure] [vlan
vlan] [interface interface-id]

address table.
