Parameters

Parameter	Description	Value
mac-address	Specifies a MAC address for a BDIF interface.	The value is in the format of H-H-H. Each H is a 4-digit hexadecimal number, such as 00e0 or fc01. If an H contains less than four digits, 0s are added ahead. For example, e0 is equal to 00e0. A MAC address cannot be all 0s or 1s or a multicast MAC address.

Usage Guidelines

Configuration Impact

After you configure a MAC address for a VBDIF interface, the device will actively send gratuitous ARP packets to update the mapping between MAC addresses and interfaces of other devices.

Example

# Configure the MAC address 0000-5e00-0101 for BDIF10.

<sysname> system-view
[sysname] bridge-domain 10
[sysname-bd10] quit
[sysname] interface vbdif 10
[sysname-Vbdif10] mac-address 0000-5e00-0101
