Station Movement Trap
This security measure ensures that when any end station is moved from one
switch port to another, an alert (Station Movement Trap) will be sent to the
designated trap receiver. The information displayed in the alert is listed in
Table 5-1. The station movement is detected when the station’s MAC address
(already learned by the switch) appears on a different switchboard.
New Node Detection Trap
This security measure ensures that when any new device is connected to the
secured port, an alert (New Node Detection Trap) will be sent to the designated
trap receiver. The information shown in the alert is listed in Table 5-1. The new
device is detected when it is connected and its MAC address is recognized as
one not present in the current table.
Once a device has been connected and has generated traffic on the network, the
trap will not be re-sent. If the switch ages out the MAC address of a connected
device from its forwarding database, new traffic from that device will result in a
New Node trap being sent. The default age-out time is 300 seconds. You may
reduce the number of traps sent by lengthening the age-out time, as explained
in "Setting the MAC Address Age-Out Time" in Chapter 3.
Enabling and Disabling Duplicated-IP Detection
To enable or disable detection of duplicated IP addresses, access the Security
Management menu by typing t in the Configuration menu. Then type d to

Enabling and Disabling Duplicated-IP Trap
To enable or disable the sending of a trap when a Duplicated-IP is detected, first
enable Duplicated-IP detection as explained in the previous section. Then type i
in the Security Management menu to toggle Duplicated-IP Trap from enabled
to disabled, or disabled to enabled. By default, Duplicated-IP Trap is enabled.
Enabling and Disabling Station Movement Trap
To enable or disable detection of the movement of a station on the IntraChassis
9000, access the Security Management menu by typing t in the Configuration
menu. Then type s to toggle the Station Movement Trap from enabled to
disabled, or disabled to enabled. By default, the Station Movement Trap is
