Configure Switch Features Chapter 3
Configure Port Security via Device Manager
From the Configure menu, choose Port Security.
Port security limits and identifies the MAC IDs of devices that can send traffic
through the switch port. The switch port does not forward traffic from devices
outside the defined group of devices. A security violation occurs when any of
the following conditions occur:
•
A device, which has a MAC ID different from any identified secure
MAC IDs, attempts to access the switch port.
•
The number of MAC IDs on the port exceeds the maximum number
that is supported on the port.
Port security supports multiple security levels:
•
The ability to define the number of devices that are connected to a given
port. Devices are assigned on a first-come, first-served basis and time out
after a certain period of inactivity.
•
The ability to store the existing MAC ID configuration by selecting Add
Learned MAC Addresses on the Static MAC Address Table.
•
The ability to add and remove manually MAC IDs on a per port basis.
