Interface Configuration (Ethernet)

Command Usage

If you enable port security, the switch stops learning new MAC addresses on the specified port when it has reached a

configured maximum number. Only incoming traffic with source addresses already stored in the dynamic or static address

table will be accepted.

Use the port security command to enable security on a port. Then use the port security action command to set the

response to a port security violation, and the port security max-mac-count command to set the maximum number of

addresses allowed on a port.

You can also manually add secure addresses with the mac-address-table static command.

A secure port has the following restrictions:

-Cannot be connected to a network interconnection device.

-Cannot be a trunk port.

If a port is disabled due to a security violation, it must be manually re-enabled using the no shutdown command.

Example

The following

Example

enables port security for port 5, and sets the response to a security violation to issue a trap

message:

Console(config)#interface ethernet 1/5

Console(config-if)#port security

Console(config-if)#port security action trap

Console(config-if)#

5.13.2 Network Access (MAC Address Authentication)

Network Access authentication controls access to the network by authenticating the MAC address of each host that attempts to

connect to a switch port. Traffic received from a specific MAC address is forwarded by the switch only if the source MAC

address is successfully authenticated by a central RADIUS server. While authentication for a MAC address is in progress, all

traffic is blocked until authentication is completed. Once successfully authenticated, the RADIUS server may optionally assign

VLAN settings for the switch port.
