Understanding Network Security
In addition to password protection and network access protection, the HP
Hub-16M provides two major types of per-port security:
Intruder Prevention for inbound data (from the end user to the hub).
Eavesdrop Prevention for outbound data (from the hub to the end user).
Both of these types of security can be configured on each port individually
(all twisted-pair ports and the AUI port through the SEcure command on the
ASCII console interface. These per-port security features are enabled by
comparing the source and destination address of each packet received or
transmitted by the hub to each port's Authorized MAC address—the MAC
address of the device that is authorized to communicate through that hub port.
These features can be seen through the CiscoView network management
application.
