Software Manual
The Modify button allows the administrator to change the Status of Port Security and Secure mode for all ports.
Make the required modifications, and click on the Update button. To save the changes made, navigate to the
Configuration menu and click on the Save button.
Note:
Security is not configurable on N-Ring or N-Link interconnecting ports. These ports must be linked to
adjacent switches that have the protocol enabled. This link is considered to be a closed proprietary
connection/segment that is not directly accessible. If both switches are otherwise properly secured then
the proprietary connection/segment requires no additional security.
Note:
It is recommended that the Bridging Aging Time be 300 seconds (the default) or longer while Port
Security is Learning.
Field
Description
Status
The current status of Port Security. It can be Disabled, Learning, or Locked. Transitioning from Locked to
Learning clears the Authorization List table on all ports. Transitioning from Locked to Disabled retains the
current Authorization List. When transitioning from Learning to Locked, the Authorization List represents
the authorized MAC addresses. The default value is Disabled.
Port No
The number of the port.
Port Name
The descriptive name of the port.
Secure
Displays Secure mode for the associated port. It can be Disabled, Enabled, or Single Mac.
Disabled:
Port Security is not active on the port regardless of the current Port Security Status.
Enabled:
Port Security is active when the current Port Security Status is Learning or Locked.
Single MAC:
Port Security will take the first learned MAC address and lock the port when current Port
Security Status is Learning or Locked.
The default value is Disabled.
Role
A comma separated list of all the active roles for the port, which are based on the switch configuration.
The possible roles are RSTP, N-Ring, N-Link Control, N-Link Partner, N-Link Coupler, 802.1X, and Trunk.
