Is anybody keeping up a list of undocumented catalyst commands?  I've got
an addition for the list :^)

cat6000> (enable) set movenotification ?
  disable                    Disable Mac Move Notification
  enable                     Enable Mac Move Notification
cat6000> (enable) set movenotification enable
cat6000> (enable)

When the operations center calls you at home because they just got flooded
with alerts on DMZ hosts being down, having movenotification enabled makes
it real easy to see that your firewall cluster has gone spastic and can't
decide which is the primary & which is the backup:

2004 Jan 21 00:30:12 EST -05:00 %EARL-6-MAC_MOVE:Host [00-00-00-00-fe-21]
on vlan 306 is flapping between port [7/41] and port [7/42]
2004 Jan 21 00:30:12 EST -05:00 %EARL-6-MAC_MOVE:Host [00-00-00-00-fe-21]
on vlan 306 is flapping between port [7/41] and port [7/42]
2004 Jan 21 00:30:12 EST -05:00 %EARL-6-MAC_MOVE:Host [00-00-00-00-fe-21]
on vlan 306 is flapping between port [7/41] and port [7/42]
2004 Jan 21 00:30:12 EST -05:00 %EARL-6-MAC_MOVE:Host [00-00-00-00-fe-21]
on vlan 306 is flapping between port [7/41] and port [7/42]
2004 Jan 21 00:30:12 EST -05:00 %EARL-6-MAC_MOVE:Host [00-00-00-00-fe-21]
on vlan 306 is flapping between port [7/41] and port [7/42]

set movenotification {enable | disable} works on 5.x code, but doesn't work
on any 6.x version I've tried.  Anybody know if there's an equivalent
command for 6.x code?
