Enabling MAC Address-based Security on Ports

After you have configured a port for MAC address-based security, as
explained in “Configuring Ports” on page 842, and confirmed the settings,
as explained in “Displaying Port Settings” on page 846, you are ready to
activate the feature on the ports. This is accomplished with the
SWITCHPORT PORT-SECURITY command in the Port Interface mode.
This example of the command activates port security on ports 16 to 24:

awplus> enable
awplus# configure terminal
awplus(config)# interface port1.0.16-port1.0.24
awplus(config-if)# switchport port-security

To confirm the activation, return to “Displaying Port Settings” on page 846.
The Security Enabled field in the SHOW PORT-SECURITY INTERFACE
command should have a status of Yes.
