MAC Table Learning
If the learning mode for a given port is grayed out, it means another module is in control of the
mode, and thus the user cannot change the configurations. An example of such a module is
MAC-Based authentication under 802.1X.
You can configures the port to dynamically learn the MAC address based upon the following
settings:
Label
Description
Auto
Learning is done automatically as soon as a frame with unknown
SMAC is received.
Disable
No learning is done.
Secure
Only static MAC entries are learned, all other frames are dropped.
Note: make sure the link used for managing the switch is added to
the static Mac table before changing to secure learning mode,
otherwise the management link will be lost and can only be
restored by using another non-secure port or by connecting to the
switch via the serial interface.
