Address (Modifiable)
Used to enter the source MAC address for the LockedOnAddr security
state setting. Once a secure address is defined on a port, only those frames
received with that same source address are allowed on that port. Any other
frame detected with a different address is considered as an intruder,
causing the actions selected in the Action On Intruder field to be executed.
When the security state setting is NonSecure, the field displays the source
address of the last frame.
The Address column will display the MAC source address that will be
used for the Security States NonSecure or LockedOnAddr. This may be
the last address seen (NonSecure) or the address manually entered for the
LockedOnAddr Security State.
CONNECTOR # (Selectable)
This command field selects the front panel connector to which the port
security settings will be applied.
