Information
When the mac-flood-list with the min-speed option is used in combination with the 
restrict-flood command, 
mac-flood-list command has higher priority than the 
restrict-flood command.
Therefore, all multicast frames matching the mac-address range specified using the 
mac-flood-list command are flooded according to the mac-flood-list command. Only the 
multicast frames not matching the mac-address range specified using the 
mac-flood-list 
command are flooded according to the 
restrict-flood command.
