Troubleshooting port security

Cannot set the port security mode

Symptom
Cannot set the port security mode.
[Router-GigabitEthernet3/0/1] port-security port-mode autolearn
Error:When we change port-mode, we should first change it to noRestrictions, then change
it to the other.
Analysis
For ports operating in a port security mode other than noRestrictions, you cannot change the port security
mode directly using the port-security port-mode command.
Solution
Set the port security mode to noRestrictions first.
[Router-GigabitEthernet3/0/1] undo port-security port-mode
[Router-GigabitEthernet3/0/1] port-security port-mode autolearn
