Please note that the Switch can only support one mode at any given time. Also, each time the mode is changed, the Switch must be rebooted before the new mode is activated. If you have selected MAC-based Broadcast Domains and then rebooted the Switch, Configure MAC-based Broadcast Domains will appear at the bottom of the VLAN Configuration screen (System Configuration !

After being restarted, the Switch will implement the setting you have chosen. Configure MAC-based Broadcast Domains To create MAC-based broadcast domains, simply create the broadcast domain itself in the Add/Remove MAC-based Broadcast Domains screen, and then enter MAC addresses to the broadcast domain in the Add/Remove MAC-based Broadcast Domain Members screen. Afterwards, restart the Switch and the broadcast domain will be implemented. Please note that if the mode is set to MAC-based Broadcast Domains, then the Port Lock function is not supported in the Port Configuration screen and the Lock Address Table function located on the Configure Filtering and Forwarding Table screen is not available.
