Description: Disable learning on a bridge port to prevent new addresses from being added to the address database. Used in combination with static (permanent) address entries, disabling address learning is an effective security feature to prevent new hosts from appearing on the network, or to prevent hosts from moving to different locations in the network. The default is enable.

What is gsESwitchPortLearningMode?

Enables or disables new MAC address learning on this port; combined with static address entries, disabling learning is a security control that stops new or relocated hosts from silently appearing on the network through this port. The default is enable.

Examples
