Section VI: Port Security

460

8. To set the intrusion action for a port in the limited security mode, do

the following:

a. Type 3 to select Intruder Action.

The following prompt is displayed:

Enter intruder action: (N-Discard, T-Trap, D-

Disable):

b. Select the desired action:

N - Discard: The port discards invalid frames. This is the default.

T - Trap: The port discards invalid frames and sends an SNMP
trap.

D - Disable: The port discards invalid frames, sends a SNMP
trap, and disables the port.

9. If you selected the trap or disable intrusion action, type 4 to toggle

the Port Participating option to Yes.

This option applies only when the intrusion action is set to trap or
disable. This option does not apply when intrusion action is set to
discard. If this option is set to No when intrusion action is set to
trap or disable, the port discards invalid packets, but it does not
send the SNMP trap or disable the port. If you want the switch to
send a trap and/or disable the port, you must sent this option to
Yes.

Note

The D - Select Default Port Security option in the menu sets the
security mode for the port to the default value of Automatic.

10. After making changes, type R until you return to the Main Menu. Then

type S to select Save Configuration Changes.

11. If you configured a port for Secure security level, remember to enter

the static MAC addresses of the end nodes that can send packets
through the port. For instructions on how to add static MAC
addresses, refer to Adding Static Unicast and Multicast MAC
Addresses on page 116.
