Enabling Security and Traps

Repeater-level Security and Traps

Locking ports at the repeater, or channel, level applies all applicable security (as
configured via the Port Security window) to every port on the channel.

To enable or disable security and traps for all ports on a repeater:

1.

In the Repeater Security window, click mouse button 1 on the repeater
interface for which you would like to configure port locking and/or traps.

2.

Click mouse button 1 on

; the Channel X Security window,

Figure 7-5

, will appear. Note that the current repeater-level settings are

displayed immediately to the right of the field names; a repeater whose ports
have different Security Mode or Trap settings will display a status of
“Mismatch.”

Figure 7-5. Channel X Security Window

3.

In the Security Mode field, click mouse button 1 on the appropriate selection
to apply Full or Continuous lock status to all ports on the selected repeater
channel, or to Unlock all ports on the channel. (Note that if your EMM-E6
does not support the newest security enhancements, the Continuous
selection will be unavailable.)

4.

In the Send Trap field, click mouse button 1 on the appropriate selection to
Enable or Disable traps for the selected repeater channel.

NOTE

If you select a repeater whose ports have different security capabilities, you may still be
able to select and apply security states which are not applicable to all ports. Applying
these kinds of settings will have no adverse affect on your network devices: those ports
which can accept the set will do so; those which cannot will either ignore the set or issue a
Set Failed.
