Port Security MAC Entries
To add a new MAC address to a port, first enter the address. The address must be in a
“00:11:22:33:44:55” format. Next, select the port the address will be assigned to. Then, press the ADD
button. The address and port assignment will now be in the table, but will not be committed to the
switch until the “commit” button is pressed.
To change an existing port assignment for a MAC address or to delete the MAC address, use the port
select drop-down box next to the MAC address. This allows you to change the port, or to select “delete”.
The changes will not be committed to the switch until the “commit” button is pressed.
Note: Once a MAC address is added to a port, it can only communicate to the switch through its
assigned port(s).
For example, if MAC 00:a0:1d:38:a2:8a is added to port 1 and is connected to port 2, it will be unable to
communicate with the switch.

IPSEC Settings
IPsec can authenticate, encrypt or compress IPv6 traffic to or from a switch. The IPsec software in this
switch only affects management traffic addressed to or sent from the switch, and can only be used when
the switch is configured with an IPv6 address.
Warning: Misconfiguration on this screen may block network access to the switch's configuration
interface.
Configuration is done via two databases. The SPD sets the required IPsec protocols for traffic going
from or to configured hosts or networks. The SAD contains the encryption, compression and hash
parameters needed to implement the policies required by the SPD for traffic between specific hosts.
The AH IPsec protocol is used for authentication. It uses cryptography to detect that the sender has the
same hash key the receiver does. It does not provide any secrecy in transit.
