The following table describes the fields in the MFDB Table.
Field
Description
MAC Address
The MAC Address to which the multicast MAC address is related.
To search by MAC address, enter the address with the MFDB table entry you want
displayed. Enter six two-digit hexadecimal numbers separated by colons, for example
00:0f:43:67:89:AB, and then click
Go
. If the address exists, that entry will be displayed.
An exact match is required.
VLAN ID
The VLAN ID to which the multicast MAC address is related.
Component
This is the component that is responsible for this entry in the Multicast Forwarding
Database. Possible values are
IGMP Snooping
,
GMRP, MLD Snooping
, and
Static
Filtering
.
Type
This displays the type of the entry. Static entries are those that are configured by the end
user. Dynamic entries are added to the table as a result of a learning process or protocol.
Description
The text description of this multicast table entry. Possible values are
Management
Configured
,
Network Configured
, and
Network Assisted
.
Interface
The list of interfaces that are designated for forwarding (Fwd) and filtering (Flt) for the
selected address.
Forwarding
Interfaces
The resultant forwarding list is derived from combining all the forwarding interfaces and
removing the interfaces that are listed as the static filtering interfaces.
