4.12.6 Port Security Status
This page shows the Port Security status. Port Security is a module with no direct configuration.
Configuration comes indirectly from other modules - the user modules. When a user module has
enabled port security on a port, the port is set-up for software-based learning. In this mode, frames
from unknown MAC addresses are passed on to the port security module, which in turn asks all user
modules whether to allow this new MAC address to forward or block it. For a MAC address to be set in
the forwarding state, all enabled user modules must unanimously agree on allowing the MAC address
to forward. If only one chooses to block it, it will be blocked until that user module decides otherwise.
The status page is divided into two sections - one with a legend of user modules and one with the
actual port status. The Port Security Status screen in
Figure 4-12-6
appears.
