Denying a MAC address
The action violation deny can be configured for unsecure MAC addresses that are received on an
interface. This option denies all MAC addresses in the deny MAC address list. To enable this
violation action, enter the following command,
BigIron RX(config)# interface ethernet 7/11
BigIron RX(config-if-e100-7/11)#port security
BigIron RX(config-port-security-e100-7/11)# violation deny
