Usage Guidelines
When secure MAC addresses are learned, they are aged out like other dynamically learned entries.
When a secure MAC address appears on a port/VLAN combination other than the one for which it is
configured, it is blackholed.
Configuring a secure MAC address for a port does not prevent the port from learning other MAC
addresses.
Example
The following command specifies that MAC address 00:0a:01:02:03:04 is permitted only on ports 1 and 2
in VLAN test:
create fdbentry secure-mac 00:0a:01:02:03:04 vlan test ports 1,2
