Hi
I am trying to map a port to Mac-add but i dont get any ports for a specific Mac-add
Here are the steps i do
Step 1. ping the server 192.168.25.1 --------- Successfull
Step 2. sh ip arp 192.168.25.1 -------------> this gives me the Mac-add of the server
Step 3. sh mac-address-table address 0014.sd12.ec02 ------------------> I dont see any ports when i run this command
Can anybody explain why this is happening when i can ping the server form the switch
Thanks

Hi,
Are you sure that is the correct mac address?
the mac can only contain A to F and 0 to 9 - not "s"

Hi Brennan,
The Mac-add i entered is just an example
I copy the Mac-add from Show ip arp 192.168.25.1 command and enter it into step 3 but no ports
Thanks

Ok.
Is it a Microsoft NLB address? or anything similar?
Can you source a ping from 192.168.25.1 to one of your switches SVI's, and then search for it's mac address?

Thanks

What kind of device has the ip address? Is it a MS NLB cluster?

Hi
Yes it an Linux Exagrid backup cluster
why is the switch behaving this way for a cluster
Thanks
