L2 MAC Spoof Dropped IP Check Failed — Physical NB Member Native Bridge physical member Alert MAC-IP Anti-Spoof Check Enforced For Native Bridge interface at Layer2 for IP
L2 ARP Poisoning Dropped — Physical NB Member Native Bridge physical member Alert MAC-IP Anti-Spoof Cache Found With Source MAC But IP Does Not Match For Native Bridge interface
Blacklist Drop — Physical NB Member Native Bridge physical member Alert MAC-IP Anti-Spoof Cache Found In Blacklist With Source MAC For Native Bridge interface
MAC-IP Anti-Spoof Check Enforced For Native Bridge VLAN Sub-Interface at Layer2 Native Bridge VLAN sub-interface Alert A frame was dropped on a NativeBridge VLAN sub-interface: source MAC not in the cache. Enforce mode was active.
MAC-IP Anti-Spoof Cache Found With Source MAC But IP Does Not Match For Native Bridge VLAN Sub-Interface Native Bridge VLAN sub-interface Alert ARP poisoning attempt detected on a NativeBridge VLAN sub-interface.
