This menu is not a management option; it is a title for the sub-menus
listed below it. This menu CANNOT be selected.
Port Security
This menu allows you to control access to ports by specifying the physi-
cal addresses that are allowed to connect to certain ports. If an unau-
thorized physical address attempts to connect to the restricted port, an
action (such as partition the port, send a trap, etc) can occur.
Table 4-15 describes each field in the Port Security menu.
∆ Note: For instructions on using this menu, see “Setting Port
Security” on page 3-28.
