You have configured port security on all interfaces and entered the following command on the interface range: switchport port-security violation restrict. Which of the following actions will be taken if a foreign MAC address attempts to use an interface?

A. The interface will be disabled.

B. The offending traffic will be discarded.

C. An SNMP message is sent and logged.

D. The administrator is notified and decides whether to allow the traffic or not.

Solution

B and C are correct. The restrict option discards offending traffic and sends an SNMP message to the monitoring station (as well as logging the event).

A and D are incorrect. A is incorrect because this action is indicative of the protect parameter. D is incorrect because there is no port security violation option to perform this action.
