HP 5900 series Command Reference

Syntax
In system view:
mac-address multicast mac-address interface interface-list vlan vlan-id
undo mac-address [ multicast ] [ [ mac-address [ interface interface-list ] ] vlan vlan-id ]
In Ethernet interface view or Layer 2 aggregate interface view:
mac-address multicast mac-address vlan vlan-id
undo mac-address [ multicast ] mac-address vlan vlan-id
Default
No static multicast MAC address entry is configured.
Views
System view, Ethernet interface view, Layer 2 aggregate interface view
Predefined user roles
network-admin
Parameters
mac-address: Specifies a multicast MAC address, in the format H-H-H. The multicast MAC address that
can be manually configured in the multicast MAC address entry must be unused. A multicast MAC
address is the MAC address in which the least significant bit of the most significant octet is 1.
interface interface-list: Specifies a list of interfaces. You can specify up to four single interfaces, interface
ranges, or combinations of both for the list. A single interface takes the form of interface-type
interface-number. An interface range takes the form of interface-type interface-number to interface-type
interface-number, where the end interface number must be greater than the start interface number.
vlan vlan-id: Specifies a VLAN by its VLAN ID in the range of 1 to 4094. The specified VLAN must exist,
and the system gives a prompt if the specified interface does not belong to the VLAN.
Usage guidelines
You can configure static multicast MAC address entries on the specified interface in system view or on the
current interface in interface view.
If you do not specify the multicast keyword, the undo mac-address command deletes all MAC address
entries, including static unicast and multicast MAC address entries.
Examples
# Create a multicast entry for 0100-0001-0001 in VLAN 2, and configure Ten-GigabitEthernet 1/0/1
through Ten-GigabitEthernet 1/0/5 in VLAN 2 as outgoing ports.
<Sysname> system-view
[Sysname] mac-address multicast 0100-0001-0001 interface ten-gigabitethernet 1/0/1 to
ten-gigabitethernet 1/0/5 vlan 2
# Configure a multicast entry for 0100-0001-0001 on Ten-GigabitEthernet 1/0/1 in VLAN 2.
<Sysname> system-view
[Sysname] interface ten-gigabitethernet 1/0/1
[Sysname-Ten-GigabitEthernet1/0/1] mac-address multicast 0100-0001-0001 vlan 2
