ARP Inspection
Dynamic ARP inspection is a security feature that validates ARP packets in a
network. It intercepts, logs, and discards ARP packets with invalid IP-to-MAC
address bindings. This capability protects the network from certain man-in-
the-middle attacks.
For more information, see
Dynamic ARP Inspection .
Port Profile (CLI Macro)
Macros provide a convenient way to save and share a common configuration.
A macro is a set of CLI commands with a unique name. When a macro is
applied to a port, the CLI commands contained within it are executed and
added to the Running Configuration file.

Port Profile .
Protected Ports
The Protected Ports feature provides Layer 2 isolation between interfaces
(Ethernet ports and LAGs) that share the same Broadcast domain (VLAN)
with other interfaces.

Proprietary Protocol Filtering
This feature enables user control over the filtering of packets with proprietary
protocols such as CDP, VTP, DTP, UDLD, PaGP, and SSTP. The user can
select any combination of the protocols to be filtered, for example: CDP and
VTP.
