Adding a Static MAC-IP Binding

A static binding identifies the MAC address and IPv4 address that are authorized to use a specific interface. For a VLAN sub-interface, select the VLAN sub-interface itself rather than its physical parent. For example, if the authorized device is connected through VLAN 10 on X0, select X0.10 as the interface. Do not select X0.

To add a static MAC-IP binding

  1. Navigate to NETWORK | System > MAC-IP Anti-Spoof.

  2. Click the Anti-Spoof Cache tab, and then click +Add.

  3. From the Interface drop-down menu, select the Native Bridge VLAN sub-interface.

  4. In the IP Address field, enter the authorized device’s IPv4 address.

  5. In the MAC Address field, enter the authorized device’s MAC address.

  6. Click Save.
