CHAPTER 17
Port Security
This chapter shows you how to set up port security.
17.1  Overview
Port security allows only packets with dynamically learned MAC addresses and/or configured 
static MAC addresses to pass through a port on the switch.
For maximum port security, enable this feature, disable MAC address learning and configure 
static MAC address(es) for a port. It is not recommended you disable Port Security together 
with MAC address learning as this will result in many broadcasts.
