Use the Port Security Configuration screen to enable and configure port security for 
the switch. Port Security allows you to configure each port with a list of MAC 
addresses of devices that are authorized to access the network through that port.

Port Number

The port number on the unit.

Status

Port security can be set to three states; Static, Disable, or Learning. When 

set to Static, the switch will drop packets from the port if the source MAC 

address does not match one of the addresses in the MAC Address list. If 

set to Learning, the switch will add the source MAC address of all packets 

received on the port to the authorized MAC Address list.

MAC Address List

A list of the authorized MAC addresses that can access the network 

through the specified port.

New Address

A specific MAC address to be added to the list.

Add

Adds a new specified MAC address to the current list.

Remove

Removes a MAC address from the current list.

Clear All
