Page 273 highlights

You can specify a server's IP address in either manual or automatic MFF mode. The server can be a DHCP server, a server providing some other service, or the real IP address of a VRRP standby group. After you specify a server's IP address and then an ARP request from the server is received, the MFF device will search the IP-to-MAC address entries it has stored, and reply with the corresponding MAC address to the server. As a result, packets from a host to a server are forwarded by the gateway, but packets from a server to a host are not forwarded by the gateway. To specify the IP addresses of servers: Step 1. Enter system view. 2. Enter VLAN view. 3. Specify the IP addresses of servers. Command system-view vlan vlan-id mac-forced-forwarding server server-ip& Remarks N/A N/A No server IP address is specified by default.

, all the devices are in VLAN 100. Host A, Host B, and Host C obtain IP addresses
from the DHCP server. They are isolated at Layer 2, and can communicate with each other through the
gateway. MFF automatic mode is enabled on Switch A and Switch B.
