Port Security Features
The following port security features are provided:
z NTK (need to know) feature: Checks the destination MAC addresses in outbound frames and
allows frames to be sent to only devices passing authentication. This prevents illegal devices from
intercepting network traffic.
z Intrusion protection feature: Checks the source MAC addresses in inbound frames or the
usernames and passwords in 802.1X authentication requests, and takes the pre-defined action on
each detected illegal frame or event. The action may be disabling the port temporarily, disabling the
port unless you bring it up manually, or blocking frames from an illegal MAC address for three
minutes (unmodifiable).
z Trap feature: Enables the device to send trap messages upon detecting specified frames that
result from, for example, intrusion or user login/logout operations. This helps you monitor some
special behaviors.
