I am trying to corral rogue IPX packets on my network and need to know how to determine the switch port number from the MAC address. Is this possible?
 
Does the 'show' command need to be run in privileged mode?
 
You should be in priveleged mode on most IOS versions to enter show mac (some later versions the command is show mac-address-table).
You can limit the output to what you're looking for using the pipe extensions,
e.g.
# show mac-address-table | include 0020.03de.4b5f

Cheers,
Phil.
