Configuring a Static Bridge Address
You can configure static bridge address information by entering the
fc
command. A static
bridge address is a fixed MAC address bridge that does not change or age out.
To configure a static MAC address follow these steps:
1. Enter the
fc
command as follows:
fc <groupNumber>
where
<groupNumber>
is the number of the group for which you want to create a static
bridge MAC address. For example, to set up a static bridge address for Group 2, you
would enter the following:
would enter the following:
fc 2
As a variation of this command, you can enter the
fc
command at the system prompt with
no group number. This will allow you to set up a static bridge address on the currently
selected group. For information on selecting a group, see Selecting a Default Group on
page 17-7.
