Chapter 15 Configuring Port-Based Traffic Control

Configuring Port Security

Use this feature to remove and add PCs on a secure port without manually deleting the existing secure
MAC addresses and to still limit the number of secure addresses on a port. You can enable or disable the
aging of statically configured secure addresses on a per-port basis.

Beginning in privileged EXEC mode, follow these steps to configure port security aging:

To disable port security aging for all secure addresses on a port, use the no switchport port-security
aging time interface configuration command. To disable aging for only statically configured secure
addresses, use the no switchport port-security aging static interface configuration command.

This example shows how to set the aging time as 2 hours for the secure addresses on a port:

Switch(config)# interface gigabitethernet0/17

Switch(config-if)# switchport port-security aging time 120

This example shows how to set the aging time as 2 minutes for the inactivity aging type with aging
enabled for the configured secure addresses on the interface:

Switch(config-if)# switchport port-security aging time 2

Switch(config-if)# switchport port-security aging type inactivity

Switch(config-if)# switchport port-security aging static

You can verify the previous commands by entering the show port-security interface interface-id
privileged EXEC command.

Command

Purpose

Step 1

configure terminal

Enter global configuration mode.

Step 2

interface interface-id

Specify the port on which you want to enable port security aging, and enter
interface configuration mode.

Note

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

Step 3

switchport port-security aging
{static | time time | type {absolute |
inactivity
}}

Enable or disable static aging for the secure port, or set the aging time or
type.

Enter static to enable aging for statically configured secure addresses on this
port.

For time, specify the aging time for this port. The valid range is from 0 to
1440 minutes. If the time is equal to 0, aging is disabled for this port.

For type, select one of these keywords:

absolute—Sets the aging type as absolute aging. All the secure
addresses on this port age out after the specified time (minutes) lapses
and are removed from the secure address list.

Note

The absolute aging time could vary by 1 minute, depending on the
sequence of the system timer.

inactivity—Sets the aging type as inactivity aging. The secure addresses
on this port age out only if there is no data traffic from the secure source
addresses for the specified time period.

Step 4

end

Return to privileged EXEC mode.

Step 5

show port-security [interface
interface-id] [address]

Verify your entries.

Step 6

copy running-config startup-config (Optional) Save your entries in the configuration file.
