Configuring IP and MAC Address Validation for Static Interfaces

This topic describes how to configure IP and MAC address validation for static interfaces on ACX Series routers.

Subscriber interfaces can be statically created and associated with a dynamic profile (for example, VLAN interfaces).

To configure IP and MAC address validation on static interfaces, include the mac-validate statement at the [edit interfaces interface-name unit logical-unit-number family inet] hierarchy level.

Configure the static VLAN interface.
[edit interfaces]
user@host# edit interface-name unit logical-unit-number family inet
Configure the type of IP and MAC address validation for the interface.
- To configure loose validation:
  [edit interfaces interface-name unit logical-unit-number family inet]
  user@host# set mac-validate loose
- To configure strict validation:
  [edit interfaces interface-name unit logical-unit-number family inet]
  user@host# set mac-validate strict

For example, to configure loose validation on interface fe-0/0/0.0, configure the following:

[edit interfaces fe-0/0/0 unit 0 family inet]

user@host# set mac-validate loose

To check packets dropped by IP and MAC address validation, use the run show interfaces interface-name statistics show command.
