Security > Port Security
Port Security is a security feature that prevents unauthorized computers (with source MAC addresses)
unknown to the Switch prior to stopping auto-learning processing from gaining access to the network.
A given ports’ (or a range of ports') dynamic MAC address learning can be stopped such that the current
source MAC addresses entered into the MAC address forwarding table cannot be changed once the port is
enabled. Using the drop-down menu, change
Admin State
to
Enabled
, input the
Max Learning Address
,
and then click
Apply
to confirm the setting.
