interface
ethernet unit/port
unit - Unit identifier. (Range: 1)

Command Usage
◆ Use mac-address-table static command to add static addresses to the MAC
address table. These addresses are not aged out, nor removed from the address
table when the assigned interface is down.
◆ When the movable-static address function is enabled on an interface, static
MAC addresses configured with the mac-address-table static command can be
moved to this interface.
◆ When the movable-static function is disabled on an interface, and a packet
with a static MAC address attempts to enter this interface, the packet is
dropped.
◆ The movable-static function cannot be set for a port that is a member of a static
or dynamic trunk. When a trunk is formed, the trunk takes on the movable-
static status of the first port to join the trunk. When other ports are
subsequently added to a trunk, those ports take on the movable-static status of
the trunk. When a port leaves a trunk, it retains the movable-static status of the
trunk.
◆ At most 32 VLANs can be enabled for mac-address-table max-mac-count, mac-
address-table sticky-dynamic, or mac-address-table movable-static.
◆ If port security is enabled, it may turn learned MAC addresses into normal static
addresses. There is no conflict between this function and the movable-static
address function.
