Create Static Address Window

This window appears when you click Create on the Static Address tab of the MAC Addresses window.

Follow these steps to continue the task of adding a static address:

  1. In the MAC Address field, enter the MAC address in the format hhhh.hhhh.hhhh.
    Use hexadecimal numbers.
  2. In the VLAN ID field, enter a VLAN ID. The interfaces in the VLAN appear in the Input Interface list (if supported) and in the Available Interfaces list.
  3. On some devices, you can select a specific input interface. If this is true of the device that you selected, you see the Input Interface list. Select an interface from the list or select All, meaning that all the interfaces are input interfaces.
    Note: Devices that do allow you to select a specific input interface either default to All or show that the Input Interface list is set to All.
  4. In the Available Interfaces list, select one or more output interfaces and click Add. The interfaces that you selected move to the Selected Interfaces list.
    Note: Some devices support static address assignments on dynamic ports and trunk ports. These interfaces appear in the Available Interfaces list as appropriate.
  5. If the Selected Interfaces list contains an interface that you do not want to use as an output interface, select it and click Remove.
  6. Click OK to close the window and to return to the MAC Addresses window.
    Your entry appears in the Static Address list of that window.
