Layer 3

Note: In the Forwarding DataBase commands, l3 is a lowercase L immediately followed by a 3. This indicates layer 3.

These fdb I2 commands are related to the mac address table.

Command - fdb
Action - l3 (Layer-3)
- Show - Show Laye database tables
  - aid= - AID to restrict display
    - NET1 | MDS1-IO1 | MDS1-1-1 | MDS1-1-1-1 | ETH1-1-1-1-1
  - ETH - Display ETH entries
  - MAC-glob - MAC Address glob to search
    - usage:e.g. *:01:fe, 00:1B:*:12:ef, or 00:1B:2C:* - one * with one or more byte/colon combos
  - vlan-id (vid)= - VLAN of the subject MAC address
    - 1-4094 | all
- find= - Search for a specific IP entry
  - ip-address = - Media Access Control (MAC) address to locate (any valid MAC address
    - Ex: 172.28.125.100
  - vlan-id (vid)= - VLAN of the subject IP address
    - 1-4094 | all
- Delete= - Clears the forwarding database for a Layer-2 VLAN from the MAC table.
  - vlan-id (vid) - Layer-2 VLAN identifier is cleared
