A problem could exist If the CPU usage is distributed unevenly to one task, other than the idle task,
for a prolonged period. If this situation occurs, contact Brocade Technical Support for assistance.
Removing MAC address entries
You can remove the following learned MAC address entries from the system MAC address table:
• All MAC address entries
• All MAC address entries for a specified interface module
• All MAC address entries for a specified Ethernet port
• All MAC address entries for a specified VLAN
• A specified MAC address entry in all VLANs
For example, to remove entries for the MAC address 000d.cb80.00d in all VLANs, enter the
following command at the Privileged EXEC level of the CLI.
Brocade# clear mac-address 000d.cb80.00d0
Syntax: clear mac-address mac-address [ethernet slot-num/port-num] | [module slot-num] | vlan
number
• If you enter the clear mac-address command without any parameters, the software removes all
MAC entries.
• Use the mac-address parameter to remove a specified MAC address from all VLANs. Specify
the MAC address in the following format: HHHH.HHHH.HHHH.
• Use the ethernet slot-num or port-num parameter to remove all MAC addresses for a specified
Ethernet port. For the slot parameter, enter the number of the device slot in which the Ethernet
interface module is installed. For the port parameter, enter the Ethernet port for which to
remove all MAC addresses.
• Use the module slot-num parameter to remove all MAC addresses for an interface module in a
specified device slot.
• Use the vlan number parameter to remove all MAC addresses for a specified VLAN.
