6 Configuring MAC Address Table
MAC address table contains address information for the switch to forward traffic between ports.
The address table includes these types of address:
1. Dynamic address: the source address learnt by the switch and will be aged after aging time if
this address is not hit. We only support IVL learning mode.
2. Static address: the source address manually added by administrators.

6.2 Terminology
Following is a brief description of terms and concepts used to describe the MAC address table:
IVL
Independent VLAN Learning: for a given set of VLANs, if a given individual MAC Address is
learned in one VLAN, which learned information is not used in forwarding decisions taken for
that address relative to any other VLAN in the given set.
SVL
Shared VLAN Learning: for a given set of VLANs, if an individual MAC Address is learned in
one VLAN, which learned information is used in forwarding decisions taken for that address
relative to all other VLANs in the given set.
6.3 Configuring Address Aging Time
The aging time is not exact time. If aging time set to N, then the dynamic address will be aged
after N~2N interval. The default aging time is 300 seconds.
