Optionally, you can use the CLI for configuration, see
Port Security
The Port Security page allows you to stop the MAC
address learning for specific port. After stopping MAC
learning, only the MAC address listed in Port Security
List can access the switch and transmit/receive traffic.
You can restrict what devices can access the ES8508
management features. MAC addresses added to the static
MAC address table can be authorized to access specified
ports on the switch.
When Port Security is enabled on any port, only authorized
MAC addresses are able to access the management
features of the ES8508 on enabled ports. Ports with
security disabled block all attempts to access the ES8508’s
management features. To globally disable port security
you must disable the feature on each individual port.
The Port Security page allows you to enable Port Security
and configure Port Security entry.
