Using the Business Policy Switch 2000 Version 1.2

 

The MAC Address Security Configuration Menu screen (

) allows you to 

specify a range of system responses to unauthorized network access to your 
switch. The system response can range from sending a trap to disabling the port. 
The network access control is based on the MAC addresses of the authorized 
stations. You can specify a list of up to 448 MAC addresses that are authorized to 
access the switch. You can also specify the ports that each MAC address is 
allowed to access. The options for allowed port access include: NONE, ALL, and 
single or multiple ports that are specified in a list, for example, 1-4, 6, 9, etc. You 
must also include the MAC address of any router connected to any secure ports.

When the switch software detects a security violation, the response can be to send 
a trap, turn on destination address (DA) filtering, disable the specific port, or any 
combination of these three options.

Menu.
