Parameters

• vlan -

  The VLAN in which to perform the look up.

• mac -

  The MAC address to look up.

Getter for ‘eth_addr’: the MAC address that was learned.

intf_id_t intf() const

Getter for ‘intf’: the interface from which the MAC address was learned.

bool operator!() const

Non-existent entries are effectively false (so this returns true).

std::string to_string() const

Returns a string representation of the current object’s values.

Private Members

eth_addr_t eth_addr_

intf_id_t intf_
