Usage Guidelines
If you enter the command without keywords, the output includes the administrative and operational
status of all secure ports on the switch.
If you enter an interface-id, the command displays port security settings for the interface.
If you enter the address keyword, the command displays the secure MAC addresses for all interfaces
and the aging information for each secure address.
If you enter an interface-id and the address keyword, the command displays all the MAC addresses for
the interface with aging information for each secure address. You can also use this command to display
all the MAC addresses for an interface even if you have not enabled port security on it.
If you enter the vlan keyword, the command displays the configured maximum and the current number
of secure MAC addresses for all VLANs on the interface. This option is visible only on interfaces that
have the switchport mode set to trunk.
Expressions are case sensitive. For example, if you enter | exclude output, the lines that contain output
do not appear, but the lines that contain Output appear.
