Refer to the exhibit.
An AOS-Switch connects to an unmanaged switch in a meeting room. The exhibit shows security settings for this port. Users report that they sometimes lose connectivity and then get it back.
Which best practice should network administrators follow to avoid this issue?
In networking best practices, port security and loop protection should not be enabled on the same port. Port security is designed to limit the number of MAC addresses learned on a port, preventing unauthorized devices from accessing the network. Loop protection, on the other hand, is designed to detect and prevent network loops, which can cause broadcast storms and network outages. These two features can conflict with each other, leading to connectivity issues as described in the scenario. Hence, to avoid users losing connectivity, disabling either port security or loop protection on the same port is advisable.
reference: Limited-continuous—port learns MAC addresses up to a specified limit; once the limit is reached, any newMAC address connected to the port is treated as an intrusion.
Traffic with an unknown destination address is blocked when port security is configured and Eavesdrop Prevention is enabled. You can disable Eavesdrop Prevention on ports where it may cause problems, such as on ports that are configured to use limited-continuous learning mode. See Configuring port security
