Ethernet Security
Assuming that password-protected hosts and network equipment are present in the customer's
network, SCES can provide the additional security needed to enhance network protection. When
configured for ethernet security, the protected ports will detect access attempts by an illegal user,
or by a hacker attempting to cable into the port.
Each SC-ES port is configured independently for the desired ethernet protection options:
SCES ports configured for normal mode will have no additional security; ports configured for Port-
based security will be disabled if ever disconnected; ports configured for MAC-based security will
be disabled or filtered if an illegal address is detected. Port- and Mac-based security modes and
options described in the paragraphs below.
