Re: System ID Extension - Mac Address Reduction

Hi Faisal,

What you're interested in is what change to an older version of 802.1d came
from 802.1t. My understanding of the MAC Address Reduction piece is that it
focuses on a MAC per chassis rather than MAC per port for the Bridge ID and
not really something that can be disabled on modern switches.

There is a fairly recent discussion on this topic on the Cisco Support
Community - in particular this post may help -
https://supportforums.cisco.com/message/3240563#3240563

Cheers,
Adam
