Configuring and Monitoring Port Security

Operating Notes for Port Security

the alert flag status for the port referenced in the dropped entry. This means that, even if an entry is forced off of the Intrusion Log, no new intrusions can be logged on the port referenced in that entry until you reset the alert flags.

LACP Not Available on Ports Configured for Port Security. To maintain security, LACP is not allowed on ports configured for port security. If you configure port security on a port on which LACP (active or passive) is configured, the switch removes the LACP configuration, displays a notice that LACP is disabled on the port(s), and enables port security on that port. For example:

ProCurve(config)# port-security e a17 learn-mode static address-limit 2

LACP has been disabled on secured port(s). ProCurve(config)#

The switch will not allow you to configure LACP on a port on which port security is enabled. For example:

ProCurve(config)# int e a17 lacp passive

Error configuring port A17: LACP and port security cannot be run together.

ProCurve(config)#

To restore LACP to the port, you must remove port security and re-enable

LACP active or passive.
