dynamic MAC addresses associated with the port. The port learns
up to the maximum addresses allowed on the port. Both
relearning and aging MAC addresses are enabled.

addresses that can be learned on the port. The Max Entries field is
enabled only if Locked is selected in the Set Port field, and the
Limited Dynamic Lock mode is selected in Learning Mode field.
– Action on Violation — Select the action to be applied to packets
arriving on a locked port. The possible options are:
• Discard — Discard the packets from any unlearned source.
• Forward — Forward the packets from an unknown source,
without learning the MAC address.
• Shutdown — Discard the packet from any unlearned source, and
shut down the port. Ports remain shutdown until they are
reactivated, or the device is reset.
Trap — Enable/disable traps being sent when a packet is received on a
–
locked port.
– Trap Frequency (1-1000000) — Enter the amount of time (in
seconds) between traps.
