Manage Port Security
Port security lets you lock one or more ports on the switch. When a port is locked, the port
can only forward packets with a source MAC addresses that you specifically allowed. The
port discards all other packets.
Configure the Global Port Security Mode
 To configure the global port security mode:
1. Connect your computer to the same network as the switch.
You can use a WiFi or wired connection to connect your computer to the network, or
connect directly to a switch that is off-network using an Ethernet cable.
2. Launch a web browser.
3. In the address field of your web browser, enter the IP address of the switch.
If you do not know the IP address of the switch, see Change the Default IP Address of the

Your web browser might display a security message, which you can ignore. For more
information, see
