Chapter 6      Administering the Switch
Managing the MAC Address Table
If you add a unicast MAC address as a static address and configure unicast MAC address filtering, 
the switch either adds the MAC address as a static address or drops packets with that MAC address, 
depending on which command was entered last. The second command that you entered overrides the 
first command.
For example, if you enter the mac address-table static mac-addr vlan vlan-id interface 
interface-id
 global configuration command followed by the mac address-table static mac-addr 
vlan vlan-id drop command, the switch drops packets with the specified MAC address as a source 
or destination.
If you enter the mac address-table static mac-addr vlan vlan-id drop global configuration 
command followed by the mac address-table static mac-addr vlan vlan-id interface interface-id 
command, the switch adds the MAC address as a static address.
You enable unicast MAC address filtering and configure the switch to drop packets with a specific 
address by specifying the source or destination unicast MAC address and the VLAN from which it is 
received. 
Beginning in privileged EXEC mode, follow these steps to configure the switch to drop a source or 
destination unicast static address:
To disable unicast MAC address filtering, use the no mac address-table static mac-addr vlan vlan-id 
global configuration command.
This example shows how to enable unicast MAC address filtering and to configure the switch to drop 
packets that have a source or destination address of c2f3.220a.12f4. When a packet is received in 
VLAN 4 with this MAC address as its source or destination, the packet is dropped:
Switch(config)# mac
 a
ddress-table static c2f3.220a.12f4 vlan 4 drop
Command
Purpose
Step 1
configure terminal
Enter global configuration mode.
Step 2
mac address-table static mac-addr 
vlan vlan-id drop 
Enable unicast MAC address filtering and configure the switch to drop a 
packet with the specified source or destination unicast static address.
For mac-addr, specify a source or destination unicast MAC address. 
Packets with this MAC address are dropped.
For vlan-id, specify the VLAN for which the packet with the 
specified MAC address is received. Valid VLAN IDs are 1 to 4094.
Step 3
end
Return to privileged EXEC mode.
Step 4
show mac address-table static
Verify your entries.
Step 5
copy running-config startup-config
(Optional) Save your entries in the configuration file.
