Dynamic Addresses

The Dynamic Address lookup table allows you to view the MAC addresses that are currently in the address database. When addresses are in the database,
the packets intended for those addresses are forwarded directly to those ports. You can sort the table by interface, VLAN, and MAC address by selecting the
sort key from the drop-down menu.
The Dynamic Addresses page contains the following options for querying the dynamic MAC address table:
Interface — Check the option box and select a port or trunk from the drop-down menus.

MAC Address — Check the option box and type the address in the box provided.
