clear mls entry ip

Use the clear mls entry ip command to clear IP MLS cache entries.

source ip_addr_spec

(Optional) Keyword and variable to specify the source IP address; see the "Usage Guidelines" section for formatting information.

all

(Optional) Keyword to remove all IP MLS cache entries.


Defaults

This command has no default settings.

Command Types

Switch command.

Command Modes

Privileged.

Usage Guidelines

Enter the full IP address or a subnet address in these formats: ip_addr or ip_addr/netmask or ip_addr/maskbit.

Use the following syntax to specify an IP subnet address:

ip_subnet_addr—This is the short subnet address format. The trailing decimal number 00 in an IP address YY.YY.YY.00 specifies the boundary for an IP subnet address. For example, 172.22.36.00 indicates a 24-bit subnet address (subnet mask 172.22.36.00/255.255.255.0), and 173.24.00.00 indicates a 16-bit subnet address (subnet mask 173.24.00.00/255.255.0.0). However, this format can identify only a subnet address of 8, 16, or 24 bits.

ip_addr/subnet_mask—This is the long subnet address format, for example, 172.22.252.00/255.255.252.00 indicates a 22-bit subnet address. This format can specify a subnet address of any bit number. To provide more flexibility, the ip_addr is a full host address, such as 172.22.253.1/255.255.252.00.

ip_addr/maskbits—This is the simplified long subnet address format. The mask bits specify the number of bits of the network masks. For example, 172.22.252.00/22 indicates a 22-bit subnet address. The ip_addr is a full host address, such as 193.22.253.1/22, which has the same subnet address as the ip_subnet_addr.

When you remove an RSM or a supervisor engine with the RSFC from the Catalyst 5000 family switch, it is removed immediately from the inclusion list and all the MLS entries for the RSM or RSFC are removed.

If you do not use the all argument in the clear mls entry ip command, you must specify at least one of the other three keywords (source, destination, or flow) and its arguments.

A 0 value for src_port and dest_port clears all entries. Unspecified options are treated as wildcards, and all entries are cleared.

Examples

This example shows how to clear the MLS entries with destination IP address 192.168.255.255:

Console>(enable) clear mls entry destination 192.168.255.255 
Multilayer switching entry cleared.
Console>(enable)

This example shows how to clear specific IP MLS entries for destination IP address 192.168.255.255:

Console>(enable) clear mls entry destination 192.168.255.255 source 192.168.253.254 flow tcp 520 320
Multilayer switching entry cleared
Console>(enable)

Usage Guidelines

When entering the IPX address syntax, use the following format:

IPX net address—1..FFFFFFFE

IPX node address—x.x.x where x is 0..FFFF

IPX address—ipx_net.ipx_node (for example, 3.0034.1245.AB45, A43.0000.0000.0001)

If you do not use the all keyword in the clear mls entry ipx command, you must specify at least one of the other two keywords (source or destination) and its argument.

Examples

This example shows how to clear specific IPX MLS entries for a destination IPX address:

Console>(enable) clear mls entry ipx destination 1.00e0.fefc.6000 source 3.0034.1245.AB45

When you delete a VLAN in VTP transparent mode, the VLAN is deleted only on the current switch.

To delete a Token Ring TrBRF VLAN, you must first reassign its child TrCRFs to another parent TrBRF, or delete the child TrCRFs.


Caution When you clear a VLAN, all ports assigned to that VLAN become inactive. However, the VLAN port assignments are retained until you move the ports to another VLAN. If the cleared VLAN is reactivated, all ports still configured on that VLAN are also reactivated. A warning is displayed if you clear a VLAN that exists in the mapping table.
