Parameters
sticky: Specifies a sticky MAC address. If you do not provide this keyword, the command configures a
static secure MAC address.
mac-address: Secure MAC address, in the H-H-H format.
interface interface-type interface-number: Specifies a Layer 2 Ethernet port by its type and number.
vlan vlan-id: Specifies the VLAN that has the secure MAC address. The vlan-id argument represents the
ID of the VLAN, in the range of 1 to 4094. Make sure you have assigned the Layer 2 port to the specified
VLAN.
Usage guidelines
Secure MAC addresses are MAC addresses configured or learned in autoLearn mode. They can survive
link down/up events, and once saved, can survive a device reboot. You can bind a MAC address to only
one port in a VLAN.
When a port is operating in autoLearn mode, you can add important or frequently used MAC addresses
as sticky or static secure MAC addresses to avoid the secure MAC address limit causing authentication
failure.
Static secure MAC addresses never age out unless you remove them by using the undo port-security
mac-address security command, changing the port security mode, or disabling the port security feature.
Sticky MAC addresses can be manually configured or automatically learned in autoLearn mode. Sticky
MAC addresses do not age out by default. You can use the port-security timer autolearn aging
command to set an aging timer for them. When the timer expires, the sticky MAC addresses are
removed.
You cannot change the type of a secure address entry that has been added or add two entries that are
identical except for their entry type. For example, you cannot add the port-security mac-address security
sticky 1-1-1 vlan 10 entry when a port-security mac-address security 1-1-1 vlan 10 entry exists. To add the
new entry, you must delete the old entry.
