Usage guidelines

When a packet arrives at an interface, the device looks up the destination MAC address of the packet in the MAC address table. If an entry is found and the outgoing interface is the same as the incoming interface, the device drops the packet.

After you configure this command on the Ethernet interface, the device forwards such packets rather than drop them.

Examples

[Sysname] interface ten-gigabitethernet1/0/1
