Description: Manages port security features on H3C/3Com switches, including secure MAC address configuration, violation mode settings, and intrusion notifications.

Start monitoring vendor-neutral, standards-based MIB, any SNMPv3-capable network device (SNMP engine identity/boot/clock status) with a free 30-day trial of IPNetwork Monitor. Import MIBs, browse SNMP OIDs, create custom SNMP monitors, configure alerts, and monitor any SNMP-enabled network device from a single console.

What Is A3COM-HUAWEI-PORT-SECURITY-MIB?

A3COM-HUAWEI-PORT-SECURITY-MIB is an H3C/3Com enterprise MIB for the port security feature, which restricts which MAC addresses are allowed on a switch port and can integrate with 802.1X-style RADIUS authentication for network access control. It exposes global port-security control settings, per-VLAN membership lists for secure ports, secure MAC address management, and a substantial RADIUS/authentication-related (Ralm) group covering session timers, reauthentication, auth mode, credentials, and server timeout settings. Its monitoring purpose spans security and authentication status: administrators watch for violation events (like unauthorized MAC addresses appearing on a port) and authentication session state, which is a security/fault-monitoring role rather than hardware sensor data. It has an implicit dependency on the device's underlying 802.1X/RADIUS authentication infrastructure given the Ralm authentication objects it exposes. It is deployed on H3C/3Com access-layer switches in environments enforcing strict endpoint access control, such as enterprise wiring closets or campus networks. Engineers can download the A3COM-HUAWEI-PORT-SECURITY-MIB file directly to load it into their MIB browser.

IPNetwork Monitor allows you to monitor SNMP objects defined in A3COM-HUAWEI-PORT-SECURITY-MIB. Use the built-in SNMP Monitoring Browser to explore available variables, view their current values and descriptions, and select the objects you want to monitor. You can then create SNMP monitors, configure thresholds, and receive alerts when monitored values change.

Supported Devices

  • H3C/3Com access-layer switches

Monitoring Examples

An admin would check h3cSecurePortSecurityControl to confirm port security is globally enabled, then review h3cSecurePortVlanMembershipList to see which VLANs have secure port enforcement applied. The Ralm authentication group, via h3cSecureRalmAuthMode and h3cSecureRalmReauthenticate, shows whether ports are using RADIUS-based reauthentication and h3cSecureRalmHoldoffTime reveals the delay before a failed client can retry. A spike in intrusion/violation notifications tied to h3cSecureMacControl would indicate an unauthorized device attempting to connect to a secured port.

What Can Be Monitored

  • port security enable state
  • secure VLAN membership
  • secure MAC address entries
  • RADIUS authentication mode and status
  • reauthentication timers
  • port security violation/intrusion events
