Enabling Security and Traps

Locking ports at the repeater, or channel, level applies all applicable security (as 
configured via the Port Security window) to every port on the channel. 

To enable or disable security and traps for all ports on a repeater:

1.

In the Repeater Security window, click mouse button 1 on the repeater 
interface for which you would like to configure port locking and/or traps.

2.

Click mouse button 1 on 

; the Channel X Security window, 

, will appear. Note that the current repeater-level settings are 

displayed immediately to the right of the field names; a repeater whose ports 
have different Security Mode or Trap settings will display a status of 
“Mismatch.”
