Procurve Port Security

[vishal_123]

Hi,

I am looking to implement 802.1x on my wired switching network but I need to cater for devices which are not .1x compliant. For example printers, machines not on the domain and maybe BYOD devices.

I have been playing with the command

"port-security 22 learn-mode configured action send-disable mac-address IamaMACaddress"

This seems to work where if I plug in a machine with a different map the port goes offline and if I plug in the correct machine and enable the port again the port sees the correct mac.

Now at this stage if i plug in a different machine the port doesnt go offline and stays up but it doesn't pass traffic so the machine doesnt pick up DHCP so it half works and half doesnt, I would expect the port to go back offline if it sees a differnet mac trying to connect to that edge port right away.

Any idea why this is occuring? This is a ProCurve J9021A Switch 2810-24G on the latest firmware N.11.64.

Thanks for any responses.
