drop-down list. The switch binding state indicates the type of
binding restrictions imposed on the switch. Switch binding is

connection policy at the Switch Binding State drop-down list.
Available selections are:
• Enable & Restrict E_Ports - Uses the switch binding
membership list to restrict devices that can attach to the switch
through E_Ports.
• Enable & Restrict F_Ports - Uses the switch binding
membership list to restrict devices that can attach to the switch
through F_Ports.
• Enable & Restrict All Ports - Uses the switch binding
membership list to restrict devices that can attach to the switch
through any port.
• Disable Switch Binding - Sets the switch binding state to
disabled and removes restrictions on devices that can attach to
the switch.

policy, and change the switch binding state.
