MacAddress
|
A unicast MAC address for which the bridge has forwarding and/or filtering information.
|
Port
|
Either a value of zero (0) or the port number of the port on which a frame having the specified MAC address has been seen. A value of 0 indicates a self-assigned MAC address.
|
Monitor
|
Select true or false to copy packets with MAC address in source or destination field. Used with port mirroring.
|
Priority
|
Priority level. If true, frames in the VLAN are forwarded through the switch fabric with high priority.
If false, frames in the VLAN are forwarded through the switch fabric with normal priority.

Note:
For troubleshooting, it is sometimes necessary to manually flush the bridge forwarding database of learned MAC addresses. You can flush the forwarding database in two contexts:
- By Port--Delete all MAC addresses associated with a port for all VLANs under Edit Port > Interface > Action > FlushMacFdb.
- By VLAN--Delete all MAC addresses associated with the VLAN under VLAN > VLANs > Advanced > Action > FlushMacFdb.
