Default Port Security Configuration
Port security can only be configured on static access ports.
A secure port cannot be a dynamic access port or a trunk port.
A secure port cannot be a destination port for Switched Port Analyzer (SPAN).
A secure port cannot belong to a Fast EtherChannel or Gigabit EtherChannel port group.
You cannot configure static secure or sticky secure MAC addresses on a voice VLAN.
When you enable port security on an interface that is also configured with a voice VLAN, you must
set the maximum allowed secure addresses on the port to at least two plus the maximum number of
secure addresses allowed on the access VLAN. When the port is connected to a Cisco IP phone, the
IP phone requires up to two MAC addresses. The address of the IP phone is learned on the voice
VLAN, and it might or might not be learned on the access VLAN. Connecting a PC to the IP phone
requires additional MAC addresses
If any type of port security is enabled on the access VLAN, dynamic port security is automatically
enabled on the voice VLAN.
