Configuring and Monitoring Port Security

Port Security

Adding an Authorized Device to a Port. To simply add a device (MAC

address) to a port’s existing Authorized Addresses list, enter the port number

with the mac-address parameter and the device’s MAC address. This assumes

that Learn Mode is set to static and the Authorized Addresses list is not full

(as determined by the current Address Limit value). For example, suppose

port A1 allows two authorized devices, but has only one device in its Autho-

rized Address list:

The Address Limit has not

been reached.

Although the

Address Limit is set

to 2, only one device

has been authorized

for this port. In this

case you can add

another without

having to also

increase the Address

Limit.

Figure 13-5. Example of Adding an Authorized Device to a Port

With the above configuration for port A1, the following command adds the

0c0090-456456 MAC address as the second authorized address.

ProCurve(config)# port-security a1 mac-address 0c0090-

456456

After executing the above command, the security configuration for port A1

would be:

The Address Limit has been

reached.
