Troubleshooting MAC configuration and switching
To
add a list of interfaces and associated MAC addresses to the Layer 2 forwarding table, use
the mac address <mac address> {forward|discard} <interface> vlan <vid>
command. For more information please refer to Avaya Secure Router 2330/4134 Configuration
— Layer 2 Ethernet (NN47263-501).
Troubleshooting a configuration failure
MAC
command will fail if either the interface is not created or the interface is
not a member of the VLAN
• Make sure the interfaces is created and it’s VLAN membership using the show bridge
port command.
Troubleshooting an operational failure
Traffic is not flowing
•
For untagged packets, verify the receiving interface is configured as either Access or
Hybrid using the show bridge port command.
• For untagged unicast packets, verify there is a MAC entry in the bridge (either learned
dynamically or configure as static) using the show bridge mac command.
