A common example of using basic port security is applying it to a port that is in an area of the physical premises that is publicly accessible. Port security is easy to configured and it allows you to secure access to a port based upon a MAC address basis.Port security can also configured locally and has no mechanism for controlling port security in a centralized fashion for distributed switches.Port security is normally configured on ports that connect servers or fixed devices, because the likelihood of the MAC address changing on that port is low.
