View the MAC address table on a Cisco switch
Switches maintain a database of MAC addresses, both manually configured (static) and dynamically learned entries. During troubleshooting, it may be helpful to investigate the entries in the MAC table.
To view the whole MAC table, use the following command from enable mode:
show mac-address-table
To list only the dynamically learned entries in the MAC table:
show mac-address-table dynamic

A powerful command to trace your network or to check the connectivity in your network that is PING command (Packet InterNet Gopher) tracert command always shows full information from source to destination but ping shows only if the network is working or not means yes or no for example (Tracert lists the places that a message passes from source to destination. Ping only says the computer destination is answering “yes, I’m here.” Traceroute is like when you are making directions for friends to come to your house as you ride the route – “Turn right on 5th, left on 10th, 640 north, left on highway 251″ Ping is a phone call where the other person picks up and says “I’m home” then hangs up. )
