switch. A member cannot belong to more than one group.

mary Secret sent by the Port group member. The hash functions are 
MD5 or SHA-1. If the Port group member does not support the Pri-
mary Hash, the switch will use the Secondary Hash.

authentication with the Port group member. The string has the fol-
lowing lengths depending on the Primary Hash function:

„ MD5 hash: 16-byte
„ SHA-1 hash: 20-byte

Secondary Hash

Hash function to use to decipher the encrypted Secondary Secret 
sent by the Port group member. Hash values are MD5 or SHA-1. 
The Secondary Hash is used when the Primary Hash is not avail-
able on the Port group member. The Primary Hash and the Second-
ary Hash cannot be the same.

Secondary 
Secret

Hex string that is encrypted by the Secondary Hash and sent for 
authentication. The string has the following lengths depending on 
the Secondary Hash function:
