mac address table issue

[ALIAOF_]

I have a switch that is connected back to our core and it only has a single VLAN configured VLAN 1)(management VLAN).  We have a few servers conneced to it on a private network (i.e, completely separate IP scheme from our infrastructure).  I need to get the mac-address-table but when I run the command I only get the entries for like 4 ports rest of the connected ports are not giving me the mac entry on them.

I have tried to generate ICMP traffic but that is not showing me the mac address on the port either.  Any ideas what else I can do?

Thank you.

Hello Mohammad,

Talha had suggested that the reason for the behaviour could be caused by how the server NICs were configured, so its answer is close to your findings and also Rick has suggested that could be something else.

From the few details you have provided it was not possible to make more then an educated guess.

I agree that you have been kind to provide a feedback on this thread.

Edit:

I have rated your feedback and the above posts from Talha and Rick. This will make this thread likely consulted by other people having similar issues.

Best Regards

Giuseppe
