Configuring Port Security - Dell PowerConnect 3324 User Manual

Configuring Port Security

Network users can be limited to specific ports or LAGs with Locked Ports. Locked Port is
restricted to users with specific MAC addresses. Locked ports can only be enabled on static
MAC addresses. In addition, the Locked Port security option enables storing a list of MAC
addresses in the Configuration file. The MAC address list can be restored after the device
has been reset. MAC addresses are learned either dynamically or statically.
Packets arriving at a locked port are either forwarded, dropped, or the packet is dropped, a
trap is sent, and the ingress port is disabled. Disabled ports are activated from the Port
Parameters page. See "Defining Port
