This mode is similar to the macAddressOrUserLoginSecure mode, except that this mode supports
multiple 802.1X and MAC authentication users.

This mode is the combination of the macAddressWithRadius and userLoginSecure modes, with
MAC authentication having a higher priority as the Else keyword implies. It allows one 802.1X
authentication user and multiple MAC authentication users to log in.

Enabling port security

Before you enable port security, disable 802.1X and MAC authentication globally.
When port security is enabled, you cannot enable 802.1X or MAC authentication, or change the access
control mode or port authorization state. The port security automatically modifies these settings in
different security modes.
To enable port security:
Step
1. Enter system view.
2. Enable port security.
You can use the undo port-security enable command to disable port security. To disable port security,
make sure no online users are present. Disabling port security forces the online users to get offline.
Enabling or disabling port security resets the following security settings to the default:
Enabling port security
Setting port security's limit on the number of secure MAC
Setting the port security mode
Configuring port security
Configuring secure MAC addresses
