Preventing the Forwarding of Dynamically Learned Stations
By default, the switch forwards any frames for stations that it has dynamically learned. By disabling this
activity, the switch only forwards frames whose addresses have been statically configured into the
forwarding cache.
Beginning in privileged EXEC mode, follow these steps to prevent the switch from forwarding frames
for stations that it has dynamically learned.
SUMMARY STEPS
1. configure terminal
2. no bridge bridge-group acquire
3. end
DETAILED STEPS
To cause the switch to forward frames to stations that it has dynamically learned, use the bridge
bridge-group acquire command in global configuration mode.
Command Purpose
Step 1
configure terminal
Example:
Router#configure terminal
Enters global configuration mode.
Step 2
no bridge bridge-group acquire
Example:
Router(config)#no bridge 1 acquire
Enables the switch to stop forwarding any frames for stations that it has
dynamically learned through the discovery process and to limit frame
forwarding to statically configured stations.
The switch filters all frames except those whose destined-to addresses
have been statically configured into the forwarding cache. To configure
a static address, use the bridge bridge-group address mac-address
{forward | discard} command in global configuration mode.
For bridge-group, specify the bridge group number. The range is 1
to 255.
Step 3
end
Example:
Router(config)#end
Returns to privileged EXEC mode.
