VPLS MAC address withdrawal removes dynamically-learned MAC addresses.
Convergence is faster when VPLS MAC address withdrawal is enabled.
Perform the following task to enable VPLS MAC address withdrawal.
-
From privileged EXEC mode, enter global configuration mode.
device# configure terminal
-
Enter bridge domain configuration mode. The following example shows how to enter configuration mode for bridge domain 1.
device(config)# bridge domain 1
-
Enable VPLS MAC address withdrawal.
device(config-bridge-domain-1)# mac-address withdrawal
After it is enabled, use the
no form of the command to disable MAC address withdrawal.
-
Return to privileged EXEC mode.
device(config-bridge-domain-1)# end
-
Verify the configuration.
device# show bridge-domain
Bridge-domain 1

Example
The following example shows how to enable VPLS MAC address withdrawal and then verify the configuration for bridge domain 1.
device# configure terminal
device(config)# bridge domain 1
device(config-bridge-domain-1)# mac-address withdrawal
device(config-bridge-domain-1)# end
!
device# show bridge-domain
