Does each switchport on a catalyst 4506 switch have its own MAC address?

To be honest off the top of my head i'm not sure but i have just tested on a 3550 as this is the only switch i have access to and
1) all the vlan interfaces use the same mac-address
2) all the physical ports have different mac-addresses
Simplest way to check, assuming you have access to 4500 is "sh interface"

"So each physical port has its own MAC-Address" - well it does on a 3550.
Try "sh port mac-address" on your switch.

Sorry, took that from a 6500 command reference. What version of CatOS are you running on the the 4500 ?

Sorry for the delay in getting back to you...and thanks for your help.
I am running cat4000-k8.8-1-1.bin
I have been trying to find a command that would yeild that information so any help would be great.

I found it....
When you do a show mod it gives the information as follows
Mod MAC-Address(es) Hw Fw Sw
--- -------------------------------------- ------ ---------- -----------------
1 00-0e-38-8c-0b-40 to 00-0e-38-8c-0b-7f 6.0 6.1(5) 8.1(1)
2 00-0d-29-db-d1-a0 to 00-0d-29-db-d1-cf 1.1
3 00-02-fd-55-a7-20 to 00-02-fd-55-a7-4f 2.3
4 00-07-eb-a1-1c-30 to 00-07-eb-a1-1c-5f 3.0
5 00-b0-64-64-f0-60 to 00-b0-64-64-f0-8f 2.3
I can then get the info from that.
Thanks,
Mike
