Maybe it is in there but IOS can't display it 'cos,

It might be that it will go away if you tftp config off
remove ofending command if present
and then on again to startup.

You will need a backout plan and if it is not actually affecting
anything why take the risk?


Jep.. Maybee IOS doesn't display the feature because it's not supported, as it's writing on the console? :-)

Dustin: Did you allready try to enter "no mac-address-table notification mac-move" in the config? Maybe it reverts the feature in the running config.

BTW: Your IOS version 12.1(23)E2 is listed as deferred. I would suggest to upgrade at least to 12.1(23)E4. But keep in mind the flash and memory requirements.

Regarding your message I would suggest to have a detailed look at bug-id CSCee40403 at Cisco. Your IOS is also listed as affected. It says that your and former releases did a traceback when issuing the "show mac-addre..." command and that they "fixed" it by removing the feature and showing the message you read.

In my opinion your predecessor maybe tried to configure that feature and got also the same command and reverted it. That might be why you can't see it anymore. But some part of the IOS in the Cat still remembers it. Had already similar problems. The only way to make the Cat forget about that command was/might be to boot it. Had already a situation where such a thing could only be solved by powercycling the box.
It's been a long time since where I stopped to ask about "Why?" or "How come?" when working with Cisco... ;-)
