Configuring the Switch

Reading and Resetting Intrusion Alarms

When an attempted security violation occurs on a port configured for Port

Security, the port drops the packets it receives from the unauthorized device.

Notice of Security Violations

When a security violation occurs on a port configured for Port Security, the

switch responds in the following ways to notify you:

■ The switch sets an alert flag for that port. This flag remains until:

• You use either the console or web browser interface to reset the flag.

• The switch is reset to its factory default configuration.

■ The web browser and console interfaces notify you of the intrusion.

• In the web browser interface:

– The Alert Log displays a Security Violation entry, with the system

date and time, and the port on which the violation occurred

(figure 6-81, below).

– The Intrusion Log lists the port number, the MAC address of

the intruding device, and the system time and date when the

intrusion occurred (figure 6-82 on page 6-126).
