page 19-6 OmniSwitch 6250 CLI Reference Guide November 2009
port-security maximum
Specifies the maximum number of source MAC addresses that an LPS port(s) is allowed to learn.
port-security slot/port[-port2] maximum number
Syntax Definitions
slot/port The slot number for the module and the physical port number on that
module (e.g., 3/1 specifies port 1 on slot 3).
-port2 The last port number in a range of ports you want to configure on the
same slot (e.g, 3/1-4 specifies ports 1-4 on slot 3).
number The number of source MAC addresses (1–100) that are allowed on this
port.
Defaults
By default, the number of MAC addresses allowed is set to 1.
Platforms Supported
OmniSwitch 6250
Usage Guidelines
• If the port attempts to learn a MAC address that will exceed the maximum number allowed, the port
will block the unauthorized address or will shutdown. Use the port-security violation command to
specify how an LPS port will handle violating traffic.
• Note that source learning of configured authorized MAC addresses is still allowed after the LPS time
limit has expired; however, all learning is stopped if the number of MAC addresses learned meets or
exceeds the maximum number of addresses allowed, even if the LPS time limit has not expired.
Examples
-> port-security 2/14 maximum 25
-> port-security 4/10-15 maximum 100
