Can I control the switching tables manually in an ethernet switch ?
 
I use Nortel baystack 450's a lot, you can view the MAC address table to see what ports a MAC address is at and you cn control the time out period to enfluence when it forgets MAC addresses. You cannot directly add or delete MAC addresses though. (the 450 allows port mirroring, so all the traffic for one port can go to another port) I tried to remain child-like, all I acheived was childish.
