Configuring Port Security 99
Parameter Description
• IEEE 802.1X with MAC Authentication, also known as MAC-Authentication Bypass.
With this method, the device can authenticate clients based on the client's MAC
address, if IEEE 802.1X authentication times out.
Auto Learn Default: 0
The maximum number of MAC addresses that can be dynamically learned on the port.
If there are static addresses configured on the port, the actual number of addresses
allowed to be learned is this number minus the number of the static MAC addresses.
Shutdown Time How long to shut down an interface if a security violation occurs.
Shutdown Enable Enables/disables administative shutdown if a security violation occurs.
