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

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

Note

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

From privileged EXEC mode, enter global configuration mode.
```
device# configure terminal
```
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
```
Enter privileged EXEC mode.
```
device(config)# exit
```

(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]
