Use the mac-address command to configure a static MAC address for a VSI. The 
address you configured can be either a MAC address on a local VSI or a MAC 
address on a remote peer.

Use the undo mac-address command to disable the configuration.

Note that when you configure a MAC address for a remote peer with the peer 
keyword provided, if you specify the VLAN-interface, the command configures the 
MAC address for a local peer.

Related command: vsi, display mac-address vsi.

# Configure to bind the static MAC entries of VLAN interface 10 and the remote 
peer to the local peer of VSI 3Com.

mac-limit: Maximum number of the MAC addresses of a specific VSI.

Use the mac-table limit command to configure the maximum number of the 
MAC addresses in the VSI. This number ranges from 0 to 65,535 and defaults to 
128. When the total number of the MAC addresses of the VSI exceeds this 
number, the system no longer learns any new source MAC address; instead, it 
directly broadcasts the packet in the VSI.

# Set the maximum number of MAC addresses of the VSI 3Com to 1,024.
