set maclock 11-11-11-11-11-11 ge.1.1 enable

Hello,

I wonder that can we do this command in new Extreme Networks Switch.

Is there any way to set the mac on given port.

Thanks
Best Regards

Erhan,

There is no way to manually set the MAC address on an XOS switch. The switch has one MAC for all ports.

There is such a locking mechanism for inbound ports on some EOS switches, which switch product are you refering to?

Erhan,

I believe you are referring to the MAC Address Locking feature. This was recently added in EXOS 15.7. The equivalent EXOS configuration would be the following:

enable mac-locking
enable mac-locking port 1
configure mac-locking port 1 static add station 11:11:11:11:11:11 #Note this particular MAC address will not work as it is a multicast MAC
configure mac-locking ports 1 static limit-learning 1 #Only allows one static entry to be added to the port
For more details on MAC Locking you may want to take a look at the 15.7 User Guide starting on page 873.
