Well guys when I configured this on the switch I have mentioned the strange
thing. Maybe you could test this... or tell why the following heppens??
PC--- Switchfa0/1 - fa0/0-router.
on the switch fa0/1 interface is configured:
switchport mode acc
sw port-security
sw port-security maximum-mac 1.
sw port-security violate shutdown
Than although I didn't do anything the mac address entry for fa0/0 interface
of the router appears in the CAM table of the router. I change the Mac on
the interface of the router... the interface of the switch goes in the
shutdown mode. I just wonder how the switch makes the entries in its CAM
table?? NO packets are sent through the network. Well I thought maybe its
due CDP frames.. but I disabled it and the behaviour is still the same. How
does the switch make an entry for the router in its CAM table?? (Are there
any frames inbetween excep CDP about which I don't know??)
Any thoughts??
Thanks.
