One possibility would be to make a separate vlan for each switch port
and bridge them all.
That way the switching would be happening in the software switch and
not the hardware switch.
brctl configures / shows statistics about the software switch.
# brctl show br0
bridge name bridge id STP enabled interfaces
br0 8000.001517e7c20c yes peth0
peth1
# brctl showmacs br0 | head -n 2
port no mac addr is local? ageing timer
1 00:00:5e:00:01:65 no 0.20
that 'port 1' I believe translates into 'peth0', while port 2 would be 'peth1'
For most hardware switch chips configuration/dump is really limited
and probably there is no way to get a mac table out of the chip.
