Security Fundamentals

What is the default port-security behavior on a trunk link?

  • A It places the port in the err-disabled state if it learns more than one MAC address.
  • B It causes a network loop when a violation occurs.
  • C It disables the native VLAN configuration as soon as port security is enabled.
  • D It places the port in the err-disabled state after 10 MAC addresses are statically configured.
Explanation

Cisco port security uses a default maximum of 1 secure MAC address and a default violation action of shutdown. A trunk link normally learns multiple MAC addresses, so once more than one MAC address is learned, a security violation occurs and the interface is placed into the err-disabled state.
