Description
Specifies that all traffic travelling on the MACsec-secured link must be MACsec-secured to be forwarded onward.
When the must-secure
option is enabled, all traffic that is not MACsec-secured
that is received on the interface is dropped.
When the must-secure
option is disabled, all traffic from devices that support
MACsec is MACsec-secured while traffic received from devices that do no support MACsec is
forwarded through the network.
The must-secure
option is particularly useful in scenarios where multiple
devices, such as a phone and a PC, are accessing the network through the same Ethernet interface.
If one of the devices supports MACsec while the other device does not support MACsec, the
device that doesn’t support MACsec can continue to send and receive traffic over the
network—provided the must-secure
option is disabled—while traffic to
and from the device that supports MACsec is MACsec-secured. In this scenario, traffic to the
device that is not MACsec-secured must be VLAN-tagged.
Default
The must-secure
option is disabled.
