Command History
Usage Guidelines When you activate the port security feature, the auto-learn option is also automatically enabled. You
can choose to activate the port-security feature and disable auto-learning using the port-security
activate vsan number no-auto-learn command. In this case, you need to manually populate the port
security database by individually securing each port.
If the auto-learn option is enabled on a VSAN, you cannot activate the database for that VSAN without
the force option.
Examples The following example activates the port security database for the specified VSAN, and automatically
enables auto-learning:
switch(config)# port-security activate vsan 1
activate Activates a port security database for the specified VSAN and automatically
enables auto-learning.
auto-learn Enables auto-learning for the specified VSAN.
database Enters the port security database configuration mode for the specified
VSAN.
vsan vsan-id Specifies the VSAN ID. The range is 1 to 4093.
force (Optional) Forces the database activation.
no-auto-learn (Optional) Disables the auto-learning feature for the port security database.
