Interface — Displays the port or LAG name.

Interface Status — Indicates the host status. The possible field values are:

Unlocked — Indicates that the port is unlocked. This is the default value.

Learning Mode — Defines the locked port type. The Learning Mode field is enabled

only if Locked is selected in the Interface Status field. The possible field values are:

Classic Lock — Locks the port using the classic lock mechanism. The port is

immediately locked, regardless of the number of addresses that have already

been learned.

Limited Dynamic Lock — Locks the port by deleting the current dynamic MAC

addresses associated with the port. The port learns up to the maximum addresses

allowed on the port (See the Max Entries field). Both relearning and aging MAC

addresses are enabled.

Max Entries — Specifies the number of MAC address that can be learned on the

port. The Max Entries field is enabled only if Locked is selected in the Interface

Status field. In addition, the Limited Dynamic Lock mode is selected. The default is 1.

Action — Indicates the action to be applied to packets arriving on a locked port. The

possible field values are:

— Discard — Discards packets from any unlearned source. This is the default

value.

Forward — Forwards packets from an unknown source without learning the

MAC address.

Shutdown — Discards packets from any unlearned source and shuts down the

port. The port remains shut down until reactivated, or until the device is reset.

Trap — Enables traps when a packet is received on a locked port. The possible field

values are:

Enable — Enables traps.
Disable — Disables traps.

Trap Frequency (Sec) — The amount of time (in seconds) between traps. The range
