With reference to HSRP, BIA and Port security, now if we have to enable
port security on HSRP enabled routers how should we proceed....

Configure virtual MAC on active router and use bia on standby ...
Or use both address and enable max-add 2 on switch port. If switchport
port-security max 2 is not allowed how should we resolved this issue

Thanks for reply
Regards

Just going through the workaround given in below url. What if you are
not
allowed to use "standby use-bia"
Workaround

  a.. Issue the standby use-bia command on the routers. This forces the
routers to use a burned-in address for HSRP instead of the virtual MAC
address.

  b.. Disable port security on the switch ports that connect to the HSRP

enabled routers.
