Baskar,
Set up the MAC address table on the switches statically to send traffic going to the common MAC address to all firewall ports. The commands to do this are:
<login to the switch>
Set up the MAC address table on the switches statically to send traffic going to the common MAC address to all firewall ports. The commands to do this are:
<login to the switch>
enable
<give enable password>
configure terminal
mac-address-table static 0901.0203.0405 fastEthernet 0/4 fastEthernet 0/1 fastEthernet 0/2 fastEthernet 0/3
mac-address-table static 0901.0203.0405 fastEthernet 0/5 fastEthernet 0/1 fastEthernet 0/2 fastEthernet 0/3
mac-address-table static 0901.0203.0405 fastEthernet 0/6 fastEthernet 0/1 fastEthernet 0/2 fastEthernet 0/3
exit
The commands above tell that whenever a packet comes in from ports 4-6 and is going to MAC address 9:1:2:3:4:5, send it to ports 1-3. You can do this with both unicast and multicast addresses, and this functionality exists even in the base IOS.
When you have exited configure mode, you can check the MAC address table with:
show mac-address-table
I hope this helps,
Ben
