Configures the source MAC address for encapsulation of outgoing packets.

Syntax

source-mac-addr mac-addr

Encap config mode

Validations for the command are as follows:

A valid MAC address must be provided.
One MAC address per encapsulation is allowed. The configured MAC address must be removed before you configure a new MAC address.
If the same command is run more than once, the second and subsequent instances are ignored and no error is reported.
If the no form of the command is run without the configuration, the command is ignored and no error is reported.

The following example configures the source MAC address.

device(config-encap)# source-MAC-addr 00:01:02:03:04:05 

device# show running-configuration 
encap encap-1 
destination-mac-addr 00:01:02:03:04:05
