Command Usage
• If you enable port security, the switch stops learning new MAC addresses on
the specified port when it has reached a configured maximum number. Only
incoming traffic with source addresses already stored in the dynamic or static
address table will be accepted.
• Use the
port security
command to enable security on a port. Then use the
port security
action
command to set the response to a port security violation,
and the
port security max-mac-count
command to set the maximum
number of addresses allowed on a port.
• You can also manually add secure addresses with the
command.
• A secure port has the following restrictions:
- Cannot be connected to a network interconnection device.
- Cannot be a trunk port.
• If a port is disabled due to a security violation, it must be manually re-enabled
using the
no
command.
Example
The following example enables port security for port 5, and sets the response to a
security violation to issue a trap message:

MAC Address Authentication)
Network Access authentication controls access to the network by authenticating the
MAC address of each host that attempts to connect to a switch port. Traffic received
from a specific MAC address is forwarded by the switch only if the source MAC
address is successfully authenticated by a central RADIUS server. While
authentication for a MAC address is in progress, all traffic is blocked until
authentication is completed. Once successfully authenticated, the RADIUS server
may optionally assign VLAN settings for the switch port.
