MAC Lockdown

MAC Lockdown is available on the Series 2600, 2600-PWR, and 2800 switches only.

MAC Lockdown, also known as “static addressing,” is the permanent assign- ment of a given MAC address (and VLAN, or Virtual Local Area Network) to a specific port on the switch. MAC Lockdown is used to prevent station movement and MAC address hijacking. It also controls address learning on the switch. When configured, the MAC Address can only be used on the assigned port and the client device will only be allowed on the assigned VLAN.

Port security and MAC Lockdown are mutually exclusive on a given port. You can either use port security or MAC Lockdown, but never both at the same time on the same port.

Syntax: [no] static-mac < mac-addr> vlan < vid > interface < port-number>

You will need to enter a separate command for each MAC/VLAN pair you wish to lock down. If you do not specify a VLAN ID (VID) the switch inserts a VID of “1”.
