learning. Be sure you enable the learning function long enough to ensure
that all valid VLAN members have been registered on the selected port.
Note that you can also restrict the maximum number of addresses that can
be learned by a port.

To add new VLAN members at a later time, you can manually add secure

addresses with the Static Address Table (page 3-140), or turn off port

security to reenable the learning function long enough for new VLAN

members to be registered. Learning may then be disabled again, if desired,

for security.

Command Usage

A secure port has the following restrictions:
- Cannot use port monitoring.
- Cannot be a multi-VLAN port.
- It cannot be used as a member of a static or dynamic trunk.
- It should not be connected to a network interconnection device.

If a port is disabled (shut down) due to a security violation, it must be

manually re-enabled from the Port/Port Configuration page

(page 3-111).
