Overview

Static Versus

Addresses

Intrusion Actions

This feature lets you control access to the ports on the switch based on the source MAC addresses of the network devices. You specify the maximum number of source MAC addresses that ports can learn. Ports that learn their maximum number of addresses discard packets that have new, unknown addresses, preventing access to the switch by any additional devices.

For example, if you configure port 3 on the switch to learn five source MAC addresses, the port learns up to five address and forwards the ingress packets of the devices that belong to those addresses. If the port receives ingress packets that have source MAC addresses other than the five it has already learned, it discards those packets to prevent the devices from passing traffic through the switch.

The MAC addresses that the ports learn can be stored as either static or dynamic addresses in the MAC address table in the switch. Ports that store the addresses as static addresses do not learn new addresses after they have learned their maximum number. In contrast, ports that store the addresses as dynamic addresses can learn new addresses when addresses are timed out from the table by the switch. The addresses are aged out according to the aging time of the MAC address table.

The intrusion actions define what the switch does when ports that have learned their maximum number of MAC addresses receive packets that have unknown source MAC addresses. Intrusion actions are also called violation actions. The possible settings are:

Protect - Ports discard those frames that have unknown MAC addresses. No other action is taken. For example, if port 14 is configured to learn 18 addresses, it starts to discard packets with unknown source MAC addresses after learning 18 MAC addresses.

Restrict - This is the same as the protect action, except that the switch sends SNMP traps when the ports discard frames. For example, if port 12 is configured to learn two addresses, the switch sends a trap every time the port, after learning two addresses, discards a packet that has an unknown MAC address.

Shutdown - The switch disables the ports and sends SNMP traps. For example, if port 5 is configured to learn three MAC addresses, it is disabled by the switch to prevent it from forwarding any further traffic if it receives a packet with an unknown source MAC address, after learning three addresses. The switch also sends an SNMP trap.
