Secure – Allows the ports on the connector to receive only those
frames with the address as determined by the selection in the
Lock/Learn field.
NonSecure – Allows the ports on the connector to receive all frames.
The source address of received frames is not examined and the frames
are processed in a non secure state.
Lock/Learn (Selectable)
Used to select the type of security for frames received by any port on the
connector. The security types are as follows:
LockOnNext – The next frame received by each port is examined to
learn its source address. As the source address of a frame is learned on
a port, only those frames received with that same source address are
processed on that port. Any other address detected is considered as an
intruder and the device executes the actions selected in the Action On
Intruder field.
