Enabling Traps for Unknown Source Addresses

To enable traps for unknown source addresses, you must first enable
the MAC Address Lock feature. You can enable this feature and
traps for unknown source addresses by using the Web Agent, CLI, or
SNMP.

Enabling MAC Address Lock and Traps by

Using the Web Agent

To use the Web Agent to enable the MAC Address Lock feature and
traps for unknown source addresses:

1. Manually add the “permitted” MAC addresses to the Address

Forwarding Table (AFT).

For information on how to manually add MAC address to the
AFT, see “Adding Entries to the AFT Manually” in chapter 6 of
Cajun P550R/P880/P882 Switch User Guide, Version v5.0.

2. Enter the following information on the Switch Port

Configuration page for the port:

a. Set the Allow Learning field to Disable.

b. Set the Known Mode field to Enable.

Note: To prevent flooding of frames from unknown source
addresses, set the Known Mode field to Enable for all ports
on the same VLAN as the port for which you are enabling
MAC address lock.

c. Set the Intrusion Trap field to Enable.

d. Adjust the trap timer, if desired.

See “Configuring Switch Port Parameters” in chapter 5 of Cajun
P550R/P880/P882 Switch User Guide Version 5.0
, for
information on how to perform these procedures.

Enabling MAC Address Lock and Traps by Using the CLI

To use the CLI to enable the MAC Address Lock feature and traps for
unknown source addresses:

1. Enter Global Configuration mode.

The CLI displays the

>(config)#

prompt.
