SET SWITCH THRESHOLD

Syntax

set switch threshold=threshold port=port

Parameters

threshold

Specifies the maximum number of dynamic MAC

addresses a port on the switch can learn. The range is
1 to 150 addresses. The default is 100.

port

Specifies the port whose threshold you want to

change. You can specify more than one port at a time.
You can specify the ports individually (e.g., 2,3,5), as a
range (e.g., 7-9), or both (e.g., 2,5,7-9).

Description

This command is used when the switch is operating in the Limited
security mode. The Limited security mode allows you to set the
maximum number of dynamic MAC addresses the ports on a switch can
learn. Once a port has learned its maximum number of MAC addresses, it
discards ingress frames with new source MAC addresses.

You can assign different limits to different ports. To view the current
threshold levels, use the SHOW SWITCH THRESHOLD command.

Example

The following command sets a threshold limit of 75 dynamic MAC
addresses on Ports 5 through 7:

set switch threshold=75 port=5-7
