z If MAC authentication is enabled on a port, you cannot configure the maximum number of dynamic
MAC address entries for that port (through the mac-address max-mac-count command), and
vice versa.
z If MAC authentication is enabled on a port, you cannot configure port security (through the
port-security enable command) on that port, and vice versa.
z You can configure MAC authentication on a port before enabling it globally. However, the
configuration will not take effect unless MAC authentication is enabled globally.
z The offline detect timer configured in system view applies to all MAC authentication-enabled ports.

set the offline detect timer to different values on different Ethernet ports.
