Trunk port security extends port security to trunk ports. It restricts the allowed MAC addresses or the
maximum number of MAC addresses to individual VLANs on a trunk port. Trunk port security enables
service providers to block the access from a station with a different MAC address than the ones specified
for that VLAN on that trunk port. When a trunk port security violation occurs, the trunk port is shut down
and an SNMP trap may be generated. Trunk port security is also supported on private VLAN trunk ports
