Displaying the MAC Address Table
To display the contents of the MAC address table, use the show mac-address-table command:
Network Interface Controller (NIC) Teaming
NIC teaming is a feature that allows multiple network interface cards in a server to be represented by one
MAC address and one IP address in order to provide transparent redundancy, balancing, and to fully utilize
network adapter resources.
Support for NIC teaming is auto-configured on the Aggregator, including support for:
• MAC Address Station Move
• MAC Address Station Move
Figure 13-1 shows a topology where two NICs have been teamed together. In this case, if the primary NIC
fails, traffic switches to the secondary NIC, because they are represented by the same set of addresses.
