Using Passwords, Port Security, and Authorized IP Managers To Protect Against Unauthorized Access

Configuring and Monitoring Port Security

For example, suppose port 1 is configured as shown below and you want to remove 0c0090-123456 from the Authorized Address list:

The following command serves this purpose by removing 0c0090-123456 and reducing the Address Limit to 1:

HP2512(config) # port-security 1 address-limit 1 HP2512(config) # no port-security 1 mac-address

0c0090-123456

The above command sequence results in the following configuration for port 1:
