Chapter 17 Port Security Figure 70 Advanced Application > Port Security The following table describes the labels in this screen. Table 38 Advanced Application > Port Security LABEL DESCRIPTION Active Select this check box to enable the port security feature on the Switch. Port This field displays a port number. * Settings in this row apply to all ports. Use this row only if you want to make some settings the same for all ports. Use this row first to set the common settings and then make adjustments on a port-by-port basis. Note: Changes in this row are copied to all the ports as soon as you make them. Active Select this check box to enable the port security feature on this port. The Switch forwards packets whose MAC address(es) is in the MAC address table on this port. Packets with no matching MAC address(es) are dropped. Clear this check box to disable the port security feature. The Switch forwards all packets on this port. Address Learning MAC address learning reduces outgoing broadcast traffic. For MAC address learning to occur on a port, the port itself must be active (activated in the Basic Settings, Port Setup screen) with address learning enabled. Limited Number of Learned MAC Address Use this field to limit the number of (dynamic) MAC addresses that may be learned on a port. For example, if you set this field to "5" on port 2, then only the devices with these five learned MAC addresses may access port 2 at any one time. A sixth device would have to wait until one of the five learned MAC addresses aged out. MAC address aging out time can be set in the Switch Setup screen. The valid range is from "0" to "8192". "0" means that the limiting of learned addresses is disabled. 132 ES-2108 Series User's Guide
