Hi FabNewCert,
Juniper Networks EX Series Ethernet Switches store MAC addresses in the Ethernet switching table, also called the MAC table. When the aging time for a MAC address in the table expires, the address is removed.
If your switch runs Juniper Networks Junos operating system (Junos OS) for EX Series switches with support for the Enhanced Layer 2 Software (ELS) configuration style, you can configure the MAC table aging time on all VLANs on the switch. If your switch runs Junos OS that does not support ELS, you can configure the MAC table aging time on all VLANs on the switch or on specified VLANs, as well as configure aging time to be unlimited, either on all VLANs or on specified VLANs, so that MAC addresses never age out of the table.
For better understanding please go through the below documents

https://www.juniper.net/documentation/en_US/junos/topics/example/layer-2-mac-limit-port-security-configuring.html
If I clear the mac table it ends up being about 5000 entries, and it continuouosly grows up to the 32k limit unless I clear it again.
Please mark "Accepted Solution" if this helps.
Kudos are always appreciated
Thanks
