If you execute the undo mac-address [ multiport ] [ [ mac-address ] vlan vlan-id ] command without specifying the multiport keyword, this command deletes all matching MAC address entries. Examples # Add a multiport unicast MAC address entry for MAC address 000f-e201-0101 to send all frames destined for this MAC address out of interfaces Ten-GigabitEthernet 1/0/1 through Ten-GigabitEthernet 1/0/3 that belong to VLAN 2. system-view [Sysname] mac-address multiport 000f-e201-0101 interface ten-gigabitethernet 1/0/1 to ten-gigabitethernet 1/0/3 vlan 2 Related commands • display mac-address multiport • mac-address multiport (interface view) mac-address timer Use mac-address timer to configure the aging timer for dynamic MAC address entries. Use undo mac-address timer to restore the default. Syntax mac-address timer { aging seconds | no-aging } undo mac-address timer Default The aging timer for dynamic MAC address entries is 300 seconds. Views System view Predefined user roles network-admin Parameters aging seconds: Sets an aging timer for dynamic MAC address entries, in the range of 10 to 1000000 seconds. no-aging: Sets dynamic MAC address entries not to age. Usage guidelines After the network topology changes, the dynamic MAC address entries are not updated in a timely manner. As a result, the device cannot learn new MAC addresses and fails to forward the user traffic correctly. To solve this problem, set an appropriate aging time for dynamic MAC address entries. The device automatically deletes the expired dynamic MAC address entries, and then the device learns new MAC address entries to build new MAC address entries. Follow these guidelines to set the aging timer appropriately: • A long aging interval causes the MAC address table to retain outdated entries and fail to accommodate the latest network changes. 60
