specifies the maximum number of users on the port. If

is taken. The action can be one of the four different actions as described

corresponding actions are disabled.
Aging Enabled
If checked, secured MAC addresses are subject to aging as discussed under
Aging Period
is checked, then the aging period is controlled with this input. If other
modules are using the underlying port security for securing MAC addresses, they may
have other requirements to the aging period. The underlying port security will use the
shorter requested aging period of all modules that use the functionality.
The Aging Period can be set to a number between 10 and 10,000,000 seconds.
To understand why aging may be desired, consider the following scenario: Suppose
