Section VI: Port Security

ˆ

enabled on the switch for the trap to be sent.)

ˆ

Discard the invalid frame, send an SNMP trap, and disable the port.

Guidelines

Here are the guidelines to observe when using this type of port security:

ˆ

This security method only applies to ingress packets on a port and not
to egress packets.

ˆ

MAC address security can be set from a local, Telnet, or SSH
management session, but not from a web browser management
session.

ˆ

You cannot use MAC address security and 802.1x port-based access
control on a port at the same time. To configure a port as an
Authenticator or Supplicant in 802.1x port-based access control, you
must set its MAC address security level to Automatic.

ˆ

This type of port security is not supported on optional GBIC and SFP
modules.
