User Module Legend

The legend shows all user modules that may request Port Security services.

Object

Description

User Module Name

The full name of a module that may request Port Security services.

Abbr

A one-letter abbreviation of the user module. This is used in the Users column in

the port status table.

Port Status

The table has one row for each port on the selected switch in the switch and a number of columns, which are:

Object

Description

Port

The port number for which the status applies. Click the port number to see the

status for this particular port.

Users

Each of the user modules has a column that shows whether that module has

enabled Port Security or not. A '-' means that the corresponding user module is

not enabled, whereas a letter indicates that the user module abbreviated by that

letter has enabled port security.

State

Shows the current state of the port. It can take one of four values:

Disabled: No user modules are currently using the Port Security service.

Ready: The Port Security service is in use by at least one user module, and
is awaiting frames from unknown MAC addresses to arrive.

Limit Reached: The Port Security service is enabled by at least the Limit
Control user module, and that module has indicated that the limit is reached

and no more MAC addresses should be taken in.

Shutdown: The Port Security service is enabled by at least the Limit Control
user module, and that module has indicated that the limit is exceeded. No

MAC addresses can be learned on the port until it is administratively

re-opened on the Limit Control configuration Web-Page.

MAC Count

(Current, Limit)

The two columns indicate the number of currently learned MAC addresses

(forwarding as well as blocked) and the maximum number of MAC addresses

that can be learned on the port, respectively.

If no user modules are enabled on the port, the Current column will show a dash

(-).

If the Limit Control user module is not enabled on the port, the Limit column will

show a dash (-).
