Configuration Task List; Enabling Port Security - HPE FlexNetwork 5510 HI Series Security Configuration Manual

In this mode, the port performs 802.1X authentication first. If 802.1X authentication fails, MAC
authentication is performed.
•
macAddressOrUserLoginSecureExt.
This mode is similar to the macAddressOrUserLoginSecure mode, except that this mode
supports multiple 802.1X and MAC authentication users.
•
macAddressElseUserLoginSecure.
This mode is the combination of the macAddressWithRadius and userLoginSecure modes, with
MAC authentication having a higher priority as the Else keyword implies. The mode allows one
802.1X authentication user and multiple MAC authentication users to log in.
The port performs MAC authentication upon receiving non-802.1X frames. Upon receiving
802.1X frames, the port performs MAC authentication and then, if the authentication fails,
802.1X authentication.
•
macAddressElseUserLoginSecureExt.
This mode is similar to the macAddressElseUserLoginSecure mode except that this mode
supports multiple 802.1X and MAC authentication users as the Ext keyword implies.

Enabling port security

Before you enable port security, disable 802.1X and MAC authentication globally.
When port security is enabled, you cannot enable 802.1X or MAC authentication, or change the
access control mode or port authorization state. Port security automatically modifies these settings in
different security modes.
