4.7.2 Port Security
Port security is a feature that allows you to configure a switch port with one or more device MAC addresses that are authorized
to access the network through that port.
When port security is enabled on a port, the Managed Switch stops learning new MAC addresses on the specified port when it
has reached a configured maximum number. Only incoming traffic with source addresses already stored in the dynamic or static
address table will be authorized to access the network through that port. If a device with an unauthorized MAC address attempts
to use the switch port, the intrusion will be detected and the switch can automatically take action by disabling the port and
sending a trap message.
