bridge acquire
Syntax
[ no ] bridge { bridgeGroupName | vplsName } acquire
Release Information
Command introduced before JunosE Release
7.1.0.
vplsName variable added
in JunosE Release 7.1.0.
Description
Configures a bridge group or VPLS instance to acquire dynamically learned MAC addresses. Issuing this command enables the router to forward any frames it receives for nodes (stations) whose addresses it has learned dynamically. The no version prevents the router or VPLS instance from acquiring dynamically learned MAC addresses, and limits forwarding only to those nodes that have a statically configured address entry in the forwarding table.
To configure the maximum number of MAC addresses that the router can learn, use the bridge learn command (for a bridge group or VPLS instance) or the bridge-group learn command (for a network interface associated with a bridge group or VPLS instance).
Options
- bridgeGroupName—Name of a bridge group specified with the bridge command
- vplsName—Name of a VPLS instance created with the bridge vpls transport-virtual-router command
