You don't want standby sup to know MAC addresses ?

How it would do a quick takeover from standby then ?

Hi

The thing is I have a second switch , same hardware configuration and IOS version , but this second switch will not display the same command with mac address from StandBy supervisor

6509-2#sh mac-address-table dynamic vlan 14

Legend: * - primary entry

age - seconds since last seen

n/a - not available

vlan mac address type learn age ports

Would check the second switch perhaps the standby mechanism is not working correctly.

Lastima no estoy en BsAs sino le echaba una miradita :)
