Enabling port fencing
Port fencing in MAPS can be either an action that is part of the overall switch configuration, or part of a
specific rule. If it is part of the overall switch configuration, it will happen any time the port fails, while if it
is part of a rule, the port will be fenced if that rule is triggered. Multiple rules can have port fencing as an
action; it will happen if any of them are triggered.
To enable port fencing, complete the following steps.
1. Connect to the switch and log in using an account with admin permissions.
2. Create a rule or action as follows:
• To set up a port fencing action for the entire switch, enter mapsConfig --actions fence.
• To create a rule for port fencing, enter mapsRule --create new_rule_name -group group_name -
monitor monitor_value -timebase time_unit -op comparison_operator -value comp_op_value -
action fence.
The following example enables port fencing on a switch and then displays the
confirmation.
switch:admin> mapsconfig --actions raslog,fence
switch:admin> mapsconfig --show
