This feature allows us to secure a switch to a certain degree by limiting the number of MAC addresses seen on individual switch ports as well as limiting the specific MAC addresses allowed on individual switch ports. Port-security is a layer 2 security feature on switches that gives us a little more control over what is allowed to connect to our switch ports from a layer 2 perspective.
Originally, I wanted this article to be quite basic, but things just kept building up and it has become quite an advanced article more suited to a CCNP or CCIE candidate. In this article we will examine port-security and all the various features that go with it. Of course, at each level of expertise, you uncover a little bit more about this particular feature. Port-Security is one of those features that goes with you through your career as a Cisco network engineer from CCENT all the way up through the CCIE.
