Action

If Limit is reached, the switch can take one of the following
actions:
None: Do not allow more than Limit MAC addresses on the port,
but take no further action.
Trap: If Limit + 1 MAC addresses are seen on the port, send an
SNMP trap. If Aging is disabled, only one SNMP trap will be sent,
but with Aging enabled, new SNMP traps will be sent every time
the limit gets exceeded.
Shutdown: If Limit + 1 MAC addresses is seen on the port, shut
down the port. This implies that all secured MAC addresses will
be removed from the port, and no new will be learned. Even if
the link is physically disconnected and reconnected on the port
(by disconnecting the cable), the port will remain shut down.
There are three ways to re-open the port:
1) Boot the stack or select a new master switch.
2) Disable and re-enable Limit Control on the port or the stack
switch,
3) Click the Reopen button.
Trap & Shutdown: If Limit + 1 MAC addresses is seen on the port,
both the "Trap" and the "Shutdown" actions described above will
be taken.

State

This column shows the current state of the port as seen from the
Limit Control's point of view. The state takes one of four values:
Disabled: Limit Control is either globally disabled or disabled on
the port.
Ready: The limit is not yet reached. This can be shown for all
actions.
Limit Reached: Indicates that the limit is reached on this port.
This state can only be shown if Action is set to None or Trap.
Shutdown: Indicates that the port is shut down by the Limit
Control module. This state can only be shown if Action is set to
Shut down or Trap & Shutdown.

Reopen Button

If a port is shut down by this module, you may reopen it by
clicking this button, which will only be enabled if this is the case.
For other methods, refer to Shut down in the Action section.
Note, that clicking the reopen button causes the page to be
refreshed, so non-committed changes will be lost.
