Sample Learned Port Security Configuration
This section provides a quick tutorial that demonstrates the following tasks:
• Enabling LPS on a set of switch ports.
• Defining the maximum number of learned MAC addresses allowed on an LPS port.
• Defining the time limit in which source learning is allowed on all LPS ports.
• Selecting a method for handling unauthorized traffic received on an LPS port.
Note that LPS is supported on 10/100 and gigabit Ethernet fixed, mobile, tagged and authenticated ports.
Link aggregate and tagged (trunked) link aggregate ports are not eligible for LPS monitoring and control.
1 Enable LPS on ports 6 through 12 on slot 3, 4, and 5 using the following command:
-> port-security 3/6-12 4/6-12 5/6-12 enable
2 Set the total number of learned MAC addresses allowed on the same ports to 25 using the following
command:
-> port-security 3/6-12 4/6-12 5/6-12 maximum 25
3 Configure the amount of time in which source learning is allowed on all LPS ports to 30 minutes using
the following command:
-> port-security shutdown 30
4 Select shutdown for the LPS violation mode using the following command:
-> port-security 3/6-12 4/6-12 5/6-12 violation shutdown
Note. Optional. To verify LPS port configurations, use the show port-security command. For example:
-> show port-security

example:
-> show port-security shutdown
