Configuring an interval for collecting MAC address move notifications

To configure an interval for collecting statistical data about MAC address moves, enter the mac-movement notification interval-history command at the privileged EXEC level. This command enables a corresponding SNMP trap. This history includes statistical information such as the number of MAC addresses that move over the specified period, the total number of MAC address moves, which MAC addresses have moved, and how many times a MAC address has moved.

The software places an upper limit on the number of MAC addresses for which MAC address-specific data is reported. This limit is necessary to do this because it is not possible to report on all MAC addresses when many move.

The following example configures a history interval of 10 seconds.

device(config)# mac-movement notification interval-history 10

To disable the feature and the corresponding SNMP trap, enter the no version of the command, as shown in the following example.

device(config)# no mac-movement notification interval-history 10
