Dynamic vs Static Mac Table - and why we need an automatic "make static" function MAC/IP/PORT

we all love mac protection... (yes we do!)

but we all are a bit lazy:

 

normally we want to say: please add one first seen mac as static protection mac.

using the webinterface we can say 1 static 1 dynamic but... what does it mean?

what we normally want is that new MAC addresses are learned until the limit is reached.

means: learn until 2 macs, if 3 then trap/disable.

all macs should become static.

 

also there should be an option if mac protection should be automatically enabled if static.

means no other port is allowed to spoof this mac if once locked down, and maybe ip to mac to port lock, too
