bridge address
Enables a bridge group or VPLS instance to filter (forward or discard) frames based on their MAC address. Use this command to filter frames by a specific MAC address and to add a static (nonlearned) entry to the forwarding table. The no version removes the static MAC address entry from the forwarding table.
NOTE: For a VPLS instance, you cannot create a static (nonlearned) MAC address entry to forward to the VPLS virtual core interface.

{ forward interfaceType interfaceSpecifier | discard }no bridge { bridgeGroupName | vplsName } address macAddress
- bridgeGroupNameName of a bridge group specified with the bridge command
- vplsNameName of a VPLS instance created with the bridge vpls transport-virtual-router command
- macAddressUnique 48-bit (6-byte) number that is programmed into each LAN network interface card (NIC) at the time of manufacture; also known as a hardware address or physical address. The MAC address format is a dotted triple of four-digit hexadecimal numbers; for example, 0090.1a40.4c7c
- forwardForwards frames destined for the specified MAC address out the specified network interface
- interfaceTypeOne of the following interface types listed in Interface Types and Specifiers in About This Guide:
- interfaceSpecifierParticular interface; format varies according to interface type; see Interface Types and Specifiers in About This Guide
- discardDiscards (drops) frames sent from or destined for the specified MAC address without further processing
