By default, there is no limit on the number of MAC addresses allowed on the port.
By configuring the maximum number of MAC addresses allowed on a port, you can:
z Limit the number of users accessing the network through the port.
z Limit the number of security MAC addresses that can be added on the port.
When the maximum number of MAC addresses allowed on a port is reached, the port will not allow
more users to access the network through this port.
z The port-security max-mac-count command is irrelevant to the maximum number of MAC
addresses that can be learned on a port configured in MAC address management.
z When there are online users on a port, you cannot perform the port-security max-mac-count
command on the port.
Examples
# Set the maximum number of MAC addresses allowed on the port to 100.
