HP Moonshot Switch Module CLI Command Reference
show mac-address-table multicast
This command displays the Multicast Forwarding Database (MFDB) information. If you enter the command
with no parameter, the entire table is displayed. You can display the table entry for one MAC Address by
specifying the MAC address as an optional parameter.
Example: If one or more entries exist in the multicast forwarding table, the command output looks similar
to the following:
(Routing) #show mac-address-table multicast

Description The text description of this multicast table entry.

Fwd Interface The resultant forwarding list is derived from combining all the component’s forwarding
