Bias-Free Language

The documentation set for this product strives to use bias-free language. For the purposes of this documentation set, bias-free is defined as language that does not imply discrimination based on age, disability, gender, racial identity, ethnic identity, sexual orientation, socioeconomic status, and intersectionality.

MAC Filtering

This feature enables/disables MAC address filter on the backhaul interface.

Finding Feature Information

Your software release may not support all the features documented in this module. For the latest feature information and caveats, see the release notes for your platform and software release. To find information about the features documented in this module, and to see a list of the releases in which each feature is supported, see the Feature Information Table at the end of this document.

Use Cisco Feature Navigator to find information about platform support and Cisco software image support. To access Cisco Feature Navigator, go to http://tools.cisco.com/ITDIT/CFN/. An account on http://www.cisco.com/ is not required.

Hardware Compatibility Matrix for Cisco cBR Series Routers

Note

The hardware components introduced in a given Cisco IOS-XE Release are supported in all subsequent releases unless otherwise specified.

Information About MAC Filtering

With this feature, only the packet whose destination MAC address is the MAC address of the router interface can be forwarded. It supports 32 unicast filter entries per interface. It is disabled by default.

Note

When port-channel is enabled, MAC filtering must be enabled on backhaul interface to take effect.

Note

When both dot1q l2vpn and MAC filtering are enabled on backhaul interface, only 1 unicast filter entry is supported per backhaul interface. The MAC filtering is only supported for non-l2vpn unicast packets.

How to Configure MAC Filtering

This section describes the configuration tasks that are performed to manage MAC filtering. You can use the command-line interface (CLI) commands to complete the configuration.

Configuring MAC Filtering

To configure MAC filtering, follow the steps below:

enable 
configure terminal 
interface tenGigabitEthernet slot/subslot/port 
mac-addr-filter 
end

Verifying MAC Filtering

To verify the MAC filtering configuration on the backhaul interface, useshow running-config interface command as shown below:

Router# show running-config interface tenGigabitEthernet 4/1/0
Building configuration...

Current configuration : 73 bytes
!
interface TenGigabitEthernet4/1/0
 no ip address
 mac-addr-filter
end

To verify the MAC filtering status on a specific SUP slot and SUP-PIC bay, useshow platform software iomd command as shown below:

Router# show platform software iomd 4/4 mac-filter
IOMD (Input Output Module Driver) Mac Filter Status
