Chapter 15 Configuring Port-Based Traffic Control

Configuring Port Security

IP phone requires up to two MAC addresses. The address of the IP phone is learned on the voice
VLAN, and it might or might not be learned on the access VLAN. Connecting a PC to the IP phone
requires additional MAC addresses

If any type of port security is enabled on the access VLAN, dynamic port security is automatically
enabled on the voice VLAN.

When a voice VLAN is configured on a secure port that is also configured as a sticky secure port,
all addresses seen on the voice VLAN are learned as dynamic secure addresses, and all addresses
seen on the access VLAN (to which the port belongs) are learned as sticky secure addresses.

You cannot configure port security on a per-VLAN basis.

The switch does not support port security aging of sticky secure MAC addresses.

The protect and restrict options cannot be simultaneously enabled on an interface.

Table 15-3

summarizes port security compatibility with other features configured on a port.

Enabling and Configuring Port Security

Beginning in privileged EXEC mode, follow these steps to restrict input to an interface by limiting and
identifying MAC addresses of the stations allowed to access the port:

2

1.

DTP = Dynamic Trunking Protocol

2.

A port configured with the switchport mode dynamic interface configuration command.

No

Trunk port

No

Dynamic-access port

3.

A VLAN Query Protocol (VQP) port configured with the switchport access vlan dynamic interface
configuration command.

No

SPAN source port

Yes

SPAN destination port

No

EtherChannel

No

Protected port

Yes

IEEE 802.1x port

Yes

Voice VLAN port

4

4. You must set the maximum allowed secure addresses on the port to two plus the maximum

number of secure addresses allowed on the access VLAN.

Yes

Command

Purpose

Step 1

configure terminal

Enter global configuration mode.

Step 2

interface interface-id

Specify the interface to configure, and enter interface configuration
mode.

Step 3

switchport mode access

Set the interface mode as access; an interface in the default mode
(dynamic desirable) cannot be configured as a secure port.
