New MAC Stations

Counter

New MAC Stations is a counter of all the new MAC stations over a period of time per segment. A threshold for this counter can be set in Expert Alarms. The threshold for new MAC stations is typically set to 1 as an absolute value.

The new MAC station counter detects new MAC stations (nodes) on a LAN segment. After a segment is stabilized with a specific number of stations, this counter can indicate possible intruder stations.
