The security modes of the port security feature provide extended and combined use of
802.1X authentication and MAC authentication. They apply to scenarios that require both
802.1X authentication and MAC authentication. For scenarios that require only 802.1X
authentication or MAC authentication, you are recommended to configure 802.1X
authentication or MAC authentication rather than port security for simplicity.

Introduction

Port security is a security mechanism for network access control. It is an expansion to the
current 802.1X and MAC authentication.
Port security allows you to configure a port to operate in an intended security mode to
control the MAC address learning or user authentication on the port. This enables the
switch to learn legal source MAC addresses, so as to implement network security
management as needed.
