2000 by default.
NOTE:
•
If the number of existing entries is larger than the limit when you configure it, the device informs you to
remove excessive entries. In this case, the device does not automatically remove any existing entries or
create any new entries.
•
IGMP snooping forwarding entries created for multicast VLAN are not limited by this command. You
can use the multicast-vlan entry-limit to limit the number of entries in the IGMP snooping forwarding
table of a multicast VLAN. For more information, see the chapter “Multicast VLAN configuration.”
Configuring static multicast MAC address entries
In Layer-2 multicast, a Layer 2 multicast protocol (such as, IGMP snooping) can dynamically add multicast
MAC address entries. Or, you can manually configure multicast MAC address entries.
