MAC port security configuration
Brocade devices do not support the reserved-vlan-id num command, which changes the
default VLAN ID for the MAC port security feature.
The SNMP trap generated for restricted MAC addresses indicates the VLAN ID associated with
the MAC address, as well as the port number and MAC address.
MAC port security is not supported on ports that have multi-device port authentication
enabled.
The first packet from each new secure MAC address is dropped if secure MAC addresses are
learned dynamically.
MAC port security configuration
To configure the MAC port security feature, perform the following tasks:
Enable the MAC port security feature
Set the maximum number of secure MAC addresses for an interface
Set the port security age timer
Specify secure MAC addresses
Configure the device to automatically save secure MAC addresses to the startup-config file
Specify the action taken when a security violation occurs

feature on all interfaces at once, or on individual interfaces.
