Port Security Configuration
Use the Port Security Configuration screen to enable and configure port security for
the switch. Port Security allows you to configure each port with a list of MAC
addresses of devices that are authorized to access the network through that port.
Parameter Description
Port Number The port number on the unit.
Status Port security can set to three states; Enabled, Disabled, or Learning. When set
to Enabled, the switch will drop packets from the port if the source MAC
address does not match one of the addresses in the MAC Address list. If set to
Learning, the switch will add the source MAC address of all packets received
on the port to the authorized MAC Address list.
MAC Address List A list of the authorized MAC addresses that can access the network through
the specified port.
New Address A specific MAC address to be added to the list.
Add Adds a new specified MAC address to the current list.
Remove Removes a MAC address from the current list.
