PARAMETERS
These parameters are displayed in the web interface:
User Module Legend
◆ User Module Name – The full name of a module that may request Port
Security services.
◆ Abbr – A one-letter abbreviation of the user module. This is used in the
Users column in the port status table.
Port Status
◆ Port – The port number for which the status applies. Click the port
number to see the status for this particular port.
◆ Users – Each of the user modules has a column that shows whether
that module has enabled Port Security or not. A '-' means that the
corresponding user module is not enabled, whereas a letter indicates
that the user module abbreviated by that letter has enabled port
security.
◆ State – Shows the current state of the port. It can take one of four
values:
■
Disabled: No user modules are currently using the Port Security
service.
■
Ready: The Port Security service is in use by at least one user
module, and is awaiting frames from unknown MAC addresses to
arrive.
■
Limit Reached: The Port Security service is enabled by at least the
Limit Control user module, and that module has indicated that the
limit is reached and no more MAC addresses should be taken in.
■
Shutdown: The Port Security service is enabled by at least the Limit
Control user module, and that module has indicated that the limit is
exceeded. No MAC addresses can be learned on the port until it is
administratively re-opened on the Limit Control configuration Web-
page.
◆ MAC Count – The two columns indicate the number of currently
learned MAC addresses (forwarding as well as blocked) and the
maximum number of MAC addresses that can be learned on the port,
respectively.
If no user modules are enabled on the port, the Current column will
show a dash (-). If the Limit Control user module is not enabled on the
port, the Limit column will show a dash (-).
