Hi all,
So I was trying to configure MAC address based security in ERS 2500, but I'm having a problem
In the manual they say:
"When link on a given port goes down or the Stack/Switch is reset then the dynamically learned MAC addresses are removed from the MAC Address Security Table".
that means: If I configured auto learning on a port and set the Max mac learned to one,and set the action to partition forever in my understanding when a computer mac address is learned and someone tries to disconnect it and connect its laptop for example then an access violation occurs and the port is disabled! but the problem is the switch will learn the new mac address because the port went down when the computer was disconnected and reset the mac address and the laptop is now allowed to connect to the LAN and this makes MAC address security useless?
How I must configure the auto-learning to prevent such thing?
Thanks in advance
