Setting the none Action on an Interface to Override a MAC Limit Applied to All Interfaces (CLI Procedure)

If you set a MAC limit in your port security settings to apply to all interfaces on the EX Series switch, you can override that setting for a particular interface by specifying action none.

To use the none action to override a MAC limit setting:

  1. Set the MAC limit—for example, a limit of 5 with action drop:
    [edit ethernet-switching-options secure-access-port]
    user@switch# set interface all mac-limit (Access Port Security) 5 action drop

  2. Then change the action for one interface (here, ge-0/0/2) with this command. You don't need to specify a limit value.
    [edit ethernet-switching-options secure-access-port]
    user@switch# set interface ge–0/0/2 mac-limit action none
