[c-nsp] MAC address look up on a 6500 Native IOS

[David Sinn]

If you are looking for the MAC address of the physical interface, then  
a "show int" will tell you:

#sho int g1/1
GigabitEthernet1/1 is up, line protocol is up (connected)
   Hardware is C6k 1000Mb 802.3, address is 0012.7f6a.2f3d (bia  
0012.7f6a.2f3d)

If you are looking for what MAC addresses are learned out a physical  
interface then a "sho mac-address-table" is what you are looking for:

#sho mac-address-table int g1/1
Displaying entries from Line card 1:

Legend: * - primary entry
         age - seconds since last seen
         n/a - not available

   vlan   mac address     type    learn     age              ports
