11.5.1.3 Binding MAC Address Binding Troubleshooting

Enabling MAC address binding for ports may fail in some occasions. Here are some possible causes and

solutions:

 If MAC address binding cannot be enabled for a port, make sure the port is not enabling port

aggregation and is not configured as a Trunk port. MAC address binding is exclusive to such

configurations. If MAC address binding is to be enabled, the functions mentioned above must be

disabled first.

 If a secure address is set as static address and deleted, that secure address will be unusable even

though it exists. For this reason, it is recommended to avoid static address for ports enabling MAC

address.
