October 5, 2020

Contributed by:

You create an IPv4 virtual MAC address by assigning it a virtual router ID. You can then you bind the virtual MAC address to an interface. You cannot bind multiple virtual router IDs to the same interface. To verify the virtual MAC address configuration, you should display and examine the virtual MAC address and the interfaces bound to the virtual MAC address.

Parameters for configuring a virtual MAC address

VrID

The virtual router ID that identifies the virtual MAC address. Possible values: 1 to 255.
ifnum

The interface number (slot/port notation) to be bound to the virtual MAC address.

To configure a virtual MAC address

In the configuration utility, on the Configuration tab, expand System > Network and then click VMAC.
In the details pane, on the VMAC tab, click Add.
In the Create VMAC dialog box, in Virtual Router ID, type the value.
Under Associated Interfaces, in Available Interfaces, select a network interface, click Add, click Create and then click Close.

After you create the virtual MAC address, it appears in the configuration utility. If you selected a network interface, the virtual router ID is bound to that interface.

To delete a virtual MAC address

To delete a virtual MAC address, you need to delete the corresponding virtual router ID.

In the configuration utility, on the Configuration tab, expand System > Network and then click VMAC.
In the details pane, select an item and then click Remove.
