The Port Suppression action is used to suppress communication between unauthorized devices and the switches on your network.
Use the Scope Increase Factor drop-down to select the scope of this action. The value in this field specifies the number of levels to expand the scope of the port suppression action. A value of one (1) means only use the floor level. A value of two (2) indicates that the devices in the floor and its parent level are to be included. And so on. The maximum value that can be set is six (6).
Use the Device Limit field to specify a device limit. When a value is specified, for example, ten (10), the port suppression action will not be performed if the number of devices connected to the port exceeds this value.
Hover on the Port Suppression box to view a synopsis of its configuration.
