Configuring a static MAC address over an endpoint in a VPLS instance

A static MAC address can be associated with the logical interface for an attachment circuit (AC) endpoint in a bridge domain.

About this task

You can configure a MAC address for a logical interface for an endpoint in a VPLS instance by completing the following task.
Note

Note

Pre-configuration for the static mac is supported. Pre-configured static mac is shown as inactive mac.

Procedure

  1. From privileged EXEC mode, enter global configuration mode.
    device# configure terminal
    
  2. Create the logical-interface (LIF) entry associated to a physical or port-channel interface, associate the LIF entry to the VPLS instance and configure the static mac associated with the LIF entry.
    device(config)# mac-address-table static 0011.2345.6789 forward logical-interface ethernet 0/2.200
    
  3. Enter privileged EXEC mode.
    device(config)# exit
    
  4. (Optional) Verify the configuration using any of the following commands.
    device# show mac-address-table
    device# show mac-address-table static
    device# show mac-address-table bridge-domain [bd-id]
