CHAPTER 19
MAC Limit
This chapter shows you how to set up port or vlan security by limiting learned MAC addresses.
19.1 MAC Limit Overview
MAC limit allows only packets from a limited number of dynamically learned MAC addresses and/or
configured static MAC addresses to pass through a port or a VLAN network on the Switch. The
Switch can learn up to 16K (16384) MAC addresses in total with no limit on individual ports.
For maximum port security, enable either port security or VLAN security, disable MAC address
learning and configure static MAC address(es) for a port or a VLAN.
19.2 MAC Limit
Click Advanced Application and MAC Limit in the navigation panel to display the screen as
shown.
Note: For maximum port security, enable this feature, disable MAC address learning and
configure static MAC address(es) for a port. It is not recommended to disable both
Port Security and MAC address learning as this will result in many broadcasts.
