Multiple Hosts
—Enables or disables a single host to authorize multiple hosts for system access.
This setting must be enabled in order to either disable the ingress-filter, or to use port-lock
security on the selected port.
-
Action on Single Host Violation
—Defines the action to be applied to packets arriving in single-
host mode, from a host whose MAC address is not the client (supplicant) MAC address. You
can define this field only if you select
disable
in the
Multiple Hosts
pick list. The possible
field values here are:
Permit —Forwards the packets from an unknown source, however, the MAC address is not
learned.
Deny—Discards the packets from any unlearned source. This is the default value.
Shutdown—Discards the packet from any unlearned source and locks the port. Ports remain
locked until they are activated, or the device is reset.
-
Traps
—Enables or disables sending traps to the host if a violation occurs.
-
Trap Frequency
(1-1000000) (Sec)—Defines the time period by which traps are sent to the host.
The Trap Frequency (1-1000000) field can be defined only if the Multiple Hosts field is
defined as Disable. The default is 10 seconds.
-

Unauthorized—Clients (supplicants) have full port access.
Authorized—Clients (supplicants) have limited port access.
No single-host—Multiple Hosts is enabled.

mode, from a host whose MAC address is not the client (supplicant) MAC address.
