3. MAC address binding property configuration
Command Explanation
Port Mode
switchport port-security maximum
<value> [vlan <vlan-list>]
no switchport port-security maximum
<value> [vlan <vlan-list>]
Configure the maximum number of the
secure MAC allowed by the interface, if
specifying VLAN parameter, it means the
maximum number in the configured
VLANs. The no command cancels the
maximum number of the secure MAC
configured by the interface.
switchport port-security violation
{protect | recovery | restrict | shutdown}
no switchport port-security violation
When exceeding the maximum number of
the configured MAC addresses, MAC
address accessing the interface does not
belongs to this interface in MAC address
table or a MAC address is configured to
several interfaces in same VLAN, both of
them will violate the security of the MAC
address.
21.5.1.3 Binding MAC Address Binding Troubleshooting
Enabling MAC address binding for ports may fail in some occasions. Here are some possible
causes and solutions:
 If MAC address binding cannot be enabled for a port, make sure the port is not
enabling port aggregation and is not configured as a Trunk port. MAC address
binding is exclusive to such configurations. If MAC address binding is to be enabled,
the functions mentioned above must be disabled first.
 If a secure address is set as static address and deleted, that secure address will be
unusable even though it exists. For this reason, it is recommended to avoid static
address for ports enabling MAC address.
21.6 MAC Notification Configuration
21.6.1 Introduction to MAC Notification
MAC Notification function depends on the notification. Add or remove the MAC address,
namely, when the device is added or removed, it will notify administrator about the change by
the trap function of SNMP.
