Syntax

Description

(MX Series routers only) Display Layer 2 MAC address information.

Options

none

Display all learned Layer 2 MAC address information.

age

(Optional) Display age of a single mac-address.

brief | count | detail | extensive

(Optional) Display the specified level of output.

bridge-domain (all | bridge-domain-name)

(Optional) Display learned Layer 2 MAC addresses for all bridging domains or for the specified bridging domain.

global-count

(Optional) Display the total number of learned Layer 2 MAC addresses on the system.

instance instance-name

(Optional) Display learned Layer 2 MAC addresses for the specified routing instance.

interface interface-name

(Optional) Display learned Layer 2 MAC addresses for the specified interface.

mac-address

(Optional) Display the specified learned Layer 2 MAC address information.

vlan-id (all-vlan | vlan-id)

(Optional) Display learned Layer 2 MAC addresses for all VLANs or for the specified VLAN.

Additional Information

When Layer 2 protocol tunneling is enabled, the tunneling MAC address 01:00:0c:cd:cd:d0 is installed in the MAC table. When the Cisco Discovery Protocol (CDP), Spanning Tree Protocol (STP), or VLAN Trunk Protocol (VTP) is configured for Layer 2 protocol tunneling on an interface, the corresponding protocol MAC address is installed in the MAC table.
