Database Activation Rejection

Database activation is rejected in the following cases:
• Missing or conflicting entries exist in the configuration database but not in the active database.
• The auto-learning feature was enabled before the activation. To reactivate a database in this state, disable
auto-learning.
• The exact security is not configured for each port channel member.
• The configured database is empty but the active database is not.
If the database activation is rejected due to one or more conflicts listed in the previous section, you may decide
to proceed by forcing the port security activation.

Forcing Port Security Activation

You can forcefully activate the port security database.
