(discarding) packets sent to that MAC address.

Clear by Ports

 

This field clears the specified port (or ports) that are listed in the

 

 

Allowed Source field of the MAC Address Security Table screen (see “MAC

 

 

Address Security Table” on page 3-35). When you specify a port (or ports) to

 

 

be cleared using this field, the specific port (or ports) will be cleared for each

 

 

of the entries listed in the MAC Address Security Table. If you totally clear the

 

 

allowed Source field (leaving a blank field) for any entry, the associated MAC

 

 

address for that entry is also cleared. This field also clears the associated Port

 

 

List field in the MAC Address Security Port Lists screen (Figure 3-13).

 

 

Default

NONE

 

 

Range

NONE, ALL, A port number list (for example, 1/1-4, 3/6,

 

 

 

4/ALL, etc.)

Learn by Ports

 

All source MAC addresses of any packets received on the specified port (or

 

 

ports) are added to the MAC Security Table when the Current Learning Mode

 

 

field (see next field description) is set to Enabled. You cannot include any of

 

 

the ports that are enabled for MAC address security (see “MAC Address

 

 

Security Port Configuration” on page 3-28).

 

 

Default

NONE

 

 

Range

NONE, ALL, A port number list (for example, 1/1-4, 3/6,

 

 

 

4/ALL, etc.)

Current Learning Mode

Indicates the current learning mode for the switch ports. When this field is set

 

 

to Enabled, all source MAC addresses of any packets received on the

 

 

specified port (or ports) are added to the MAC Security Table (maximum of

448MAC address entries allowed).
