Operation Manual – Port Security
H3C S5500-EI Series Ethernet Switches
Note:
Currently, port security supports two authentication methods: 802.1x and MAC
authentication. Different port security modes employ different authentication
method or different combinations of authentication methods.
The maximum number of authenticated users that a port can support is the smaller
one between the maximum number of secure MAC addresses and the maximum
number of concurrent users that the mode of the port supports.
