Port Level Security Configuration Screen
Local Management Supplement 3-13
When a port is locked on an address, the device executes the actions
selected in the Action On Intruder field when a frame is received that
violates security.
Action On Intruder (Toggle)
Used to select the actions taken for the selected security state. There are
two fields to select the actions. Both toggle to activate or deactivate the
action.
• DisablePort/NoDisable – DisablePort causes the switch to turn off the
port that had a security violation. With NoDisable set, the port is not
turned off.
• SendTrap/NoTrap – SendTrap causes the switch to send an SNMP trap
when a port detects a security violation. With NoTrap set, no SNMP
trap is sent.
Address (Modifiable)
Used to enter the source MAC address for the LockedOnAddr security
state setting. Once a secure address is defined on a port, only those frames
received with that same source address are allowed on that port. Any other
frame detected with a different address is considered as an intruder,
causing the actions selected in the Action On Intruder field to be executed.
When the security state setting is NonSecure, the field displays the source
address of the last frame.
The Address column will display the MAC address used for the security
states, NonSecure or LockedOnAddr. This could be the last address seen
(NonSecure) or the address manually entered for the LockedOnAddr
security state.
CONNECTOR # (Selectable)
This command field selects the front panel connector to which the port
security settings will be applied.
