Label
Description
MAC Address
The MAC address that is seen on this port. If no MAC addresses are learned, a
single row stating No MAC addresses attached is displayed.
VLAN ID
The VLAN ID that is seen on this port.
State
Indicates whether the corresponding MAC address is blocked or forwarding. If
blocked, it will not be allowed to transmit or receive traffic.
Time of Addition
Shows the date and time when this MAC address was first seen on the port.
Age/Hold
If at least one user module has decided to block this MAC address, it will stay
in the blocked state until the hold time (measured in seconds) expires. If all user
modules have decided to allow this MAC address to forward, and aging is enabled,
the Port Security module will periodically check that this MAC address still
forwards traffic.
If the age period (measured in seconds) expires and no frames have been seen, the
MAC address will be removed from the MAC table. Otherwise a new age period
will begin.
If aging is disabled or a user module has decided to hold the MAC address
indefinitely, a dash (-) will be shown.
