How to clear a user device mac address entry in the Fabric Connect table

How to clear a user device mac address entry in the Fabric Connect table

I hope my question makes sense. I am building a lab to learn the Fabric Connect technology. The connectivity is working between two hosts. On the BEB, I see the client's MAC address with this command:

r1:1#show vlan mac-address-entry mac 50:00:00:0e:00:00
...
VLAN MAC SMLT
ID STATUS ADDRESS INTERFACE REMOTE TUNNEL
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
100 learned 50:00:00:0e:00:00 Port-1/3 false r2

How do I clear it?

My understanding is that the client MAC address is learned with the Data packet and not with ISIS, correct? If the destination MAC is not known, it will use the shortest tree and send the packet to every node. Is my understanding correct? Thanks!
