Description
Use this command to add static unicast MAC addresses to the switch’s
MAC address table. A static MAC address is never timed out from the
MAC address table, even when the end node is inactive. You can add just
one static MAC address at a time with this command.
The FORWARD and DISCARD parameters are used to specify whether
the switch is to forward or discard packets containing the specified source
MAC address.
