Configuring MAC address move
When MAC address move is enabled on a PE, the source MAC address of a packet incoming from a port
that is different from the port in the existing MAC entry that contains the source MAC address is added
into the MAC address table of the VPLS instance of the incoming port.
When MAC address move is disabled, the source MAC address of such a packet is not added to the
MAC address table of the VPLS instance of the incoming port if the timeout timer of that existing MAC
address entry does not expire.
You can disable MAC address move to block illegal users that use spoofed MAC addresses.
