Which command would you use to view the MAC Address Table on a Cisco switch?

The command to view the MAC Address Table on a Cisco switch is "show mac address-table." This command enables network administrators to view the dynamic MAC addresses that have been learned by the switch on its various ports, which is essential for understanding how traffic is being forwarded within the switch. The MAC Address Table contains the MAC addresses of devices connected to the switch ports along with the associated VLAN and port information.

Using this command provides insight into the devices that the switch recognizes and allows for troubleshooting and network management to ensure that devices can communicate efficiently. The specific syntax of this command is important, as it follows Cisco's convention of using "show" to display information about configuration and operational status, followed by the specific feature being queried—in this case, the MAC address table.

Other commands listed do not conform to the Cisco IOS command structure or syntax and would not yield the desired result when attempting to view the MAC Address Table.
