MAC Table learning: If the learning mode for a given port is greyed out, another module is in
control of the mode, so that it cannot be changed by the user. An example
of such a module is the MAC-Based Authentication under 802.1X.
Auto: Learning is done automatically as soon as a frame with unknown SMAC is
received.
Disable: MAC Addresses will not be learnt.
Secure: Only static MAC entries are learned, all other frames are dropped.
NOTE: Make sure that the link used for managing the switch is
added to the Static Mac Table before changing to secure learning
mode, otherwise the management link is lost and can only be
restored by using another non-secure port or by connecting to the
switch via the serial interface.
