Management Menus

In a secure mode, the system detects intrusions by comparing

incoming source addresses to entries on the table. Transmissions

from addresses not found in the table are considered intrusions.

NOTE

The master associates the MAC address table with a specific slot in the

chassis. For example, if you lock the MAC address table of the module in

Slot 2 and later replace that module with a new one, the new module in Slot

2 inherits the locked MAC address table.

2. Select the intruder options you want, as follows:

❑ Enter I for the software to send an SNMP trap message to the

SNMP manager.

The traps go to the addresses you specify in Network parameters

under the Administration menu. The message contains enough

SNMP MIB information to help you identify the hub, module, and

port where the intrusion took place. The message also contains the

MAC address of the intruding device.

❑ Enter K for the software to automatically disable the port.

Note that once the software disables a port due to an intrusion, all

source addresses cannot use that port. The port remains disabled

until you manually enable it through the port configuration menu

for the module.

❑ Enter I and K for the software to do both.

Once the software disables a port due to an intrusion, all source

addresses cannot use that port. The SNMP manager also receives

the trap.

The default setting where both J and L are selected means the software

does nothing during intrusions. If you want to keep the default, the only

security feature you are using is keeping the MAC address table locked.
