Usage Guidelines
You can use this command to display information about a specified VLAN, including the private VLANs.
The information is gathered at 1-minute intervals.
When you specify a primary VLAN, the device displays all secondary VLANs mapped to the specified primary VLAN.
The device displays the output for the private-vlan mapping keyword only when you specify a primary private VLAN. If you specify a secondary private VLAN and enter the private-vlan mapping keyword, the output is blank.
![]() Note | To display more statistics for the specified VLAN, use the show interface vlan counters and show vlan counters commands.To display more information about private VLANs, see the show interface private-vlan commands. |
You can configure a VLAN network interface with a static MAC address, and this command will display that configured MAC address. See the mac-address command for information on configuring a VLAN network interface with a static MAC address.
This command does not require a license.

This command was enhanced to display vPC information. |
Usage Guidelines
A primary entry is a MAC address learned on that interface.
![]() Note | Use the show mac address-table command without the num argument to display only the primary entries on all modules. When you use the num argument, the device displays all the entries on that module as specified by additional optional arguments. |
The device maintains static MAC address entries saved in the startup-config file across reboots and flushes the dynamic entries.
The MAC address table for each virtual device context (VDC) is separate and distinct.
![]() Note | To display the MAC address for the VDC, use the show vdc command. |
The show mac address-table command is enhanced to display information about MAC addresses on virtual port channels (vPCs). See the Cisco NX-OS Interfaces Configuration Guide for information on vPCs.
This command does not require a license.

Usage Guidelines
The STP port type displays only when you have configured the port as either an STP edge port or an STP network port. If you have not configured the STP port type, no port type displays.
If you specify an interface that is not running STP, the device returns an error message.
When you are running MST, this command displays the PVST simulation setting.
![]() Note | If you are running MST, use the show spanning-tree mst command to show more detail on the specified interfaces. |
This command does not require a license.

Each access port can belong to only one VLAN. Trunk ports can be on multiple VLANs.
![]() Note | Although a port can be associated with a VLAN as an access VLAN, a native VLAN, or one of the trunk allowed ports, the display under Ports for this commands lists only access VLANs. |
If you shut down a VLAN using the state suspend or the state active command, these values appear in the Status field:
- suspended—The VLAN is suspended.
- active—The VLAN is active.
If you shut down a VLAN using the shutdown command, these values appear in the Status field:
- act/lshut—The VLAN status is active but shut down locally.
- sus/lshut—The VLAN status is suspended but shut down locally.
If a VLAN is shut down internally, these values appear in the Status field:
- act/ishut—The VLAN status is active but shut down internally.
- sus/ishut—The VLAN status is suspended but shut down internally.
If a VLAN is shut down locally and internally, the value that is displayed in the Status field is act/ishut or sus/ishut. If a VLAN is shut down locally only, the value that is displayed in the Status field is act/lshut or sus/lshut.

This command was introduced. |
Usage Guidelines
You cannot shut down, or disable, VLAN 1 or VLANs 1006 to 4094.
Once you shut down a VLAN, the traffic ceases to flow on that VLAN. Access ports on that VLAN are also brought down; trunk ports continue to carry traffic for the other VLANs allowed on that port. However, the interface associations for the specified VLAN remain, and when you reenable, or recreate, that specified VLAN, the device automatically reinstates all the original ports to that VLAN.
To find out if a VLAN has been shut down internally, check the Status field in the show vlan command output. If a VLAN is shut down internally, one of these values appears in the Status field:
- act/lshut—VLAN status is active and shut down internally.
- sus/lshut—VLAN status is suspended and shut down internally.
![]() Note | If the VLAN is suspended and shut down, you use both the no shutdown and state active commands to return the VLAN to the active state. |
This command does not require a license.
Examples
This example shows how to restore local traffic on VLAN 2 after you have shut down, or disabled, the VLAN:
switch(config)# vlan 2 switch(config-vlan)# no shutdown switch(config-vlan)#

Usage Guidelines
The fields are as follows:
- Valid—Entry is valid in the hardware.
- PI—Primary entry.
- BD—Bridge domain.
- MAC—MAC address.
- Index—Destination index; identifies the port on which the MAC address was learned.
- Static—Statically configured entry. The hardware does not modify this entry. This entry is not be aged by the line card process.
- SW—3-bit software value associated with this entry.
- Modified—MAC address entry that was modified by the hardware since the last notification. This value is set when index value changes.
- Age byte—Age timer value when the last packet arrived with this entry’s MAC address as the source MAC address.
- Tmr sel—Age timer used for updating the age for this entry. Based on the aging value configured for the VLAN, one of the four timers is used for updating the age.
- GM—Gateway MAC address.
- Secure—Secured MAC address.
- TRAP—When this bit is set, the system drops any packet received with this source MAC address as this entry’s trap bit MAC address.
- NTFY—Notify bit. When the Secured and Notify bits are both set, the system redirects packets to the supervisor when the hardware updates the index value.
- RM—Router MAC address.
- RMA—Router MAC address that is active.
![]() Note | The RM and RMA fields are not supported on the Cisco Nexus 7000. Series device. |
- Capture bit—When this bit is set, any packet sent to this destination is copied by setting the CAP1 bit.
- Fld—Flood bit. When this bit is set, any packet sent to this destination MAC causes the flood bit to be set in the result.
- Always learn—Always learn. When this bit is set, the hardware modifies the index value irrespective of whether this bit entry is marked static or not.
This command does not require a license.
