8. Press [Enter], then [S] (for
Save) to return to the Port
Security screen.

6. Configure the Action parameter to
send an alarm if you want an SNMP
trap sent if the switch detects a
security violation attempt.

7. Type the MAC addresses of the author-
ized device(s) you want on the port.

4. Configure Address Limit to the number of
authorized devices you want on the port.

Note: If the Address Limit parameter
is more than the number of Authorized
Addresses, the port automatically adds
devices in addition to the one(s) you
specified in the Authorized Address list.
See the Caution for “Authorized
Addresses” at the end of table 6-5
(starts on page 6-120).

5. Enable Eavesdrop Prevention if you
want to prevent an unauthorized
device from using the port to
eavesdrop on the network.
