Mode
This is a selection field. Possible values are MANUAL and AUTO. The
default setting is MANUAL configuration.
Selecting AUTO in the Mode field will cause the authorized address for each port of
the hub to be automatically learned. That is, the source address of the most
recently received frame (the Last Source Address) will automatically become the
authorized address. Selecting MANUAL requires the authorized address for each
port of a hub to be manually configured. The authorized address is used for
Intrusion Security protection. Eavesdropping prevention uses only the Last Source
Address. Note that if AUTO is selected for a hub and some of its ports have had an
authorized address manually entered, the Mode field will display MIXED.
When you have moved the highlighting to the line containing the hub ID of the hub
whose ports you want to configure, use the Right and Left arrow keys to toggle
between selection of ports 1 through 8, or 9 through 16, for configuration.
Selecting 1-8 on the Port Security Control: Hub Selection panel causes the panel
illustrated in Figure 3-21 on page 3-28 to be displayed. Selecting 9-16 causes the
panel illustrated in Figure 3-22 on page 3-28 to be displayed.
