• MAC port security
Supported security
protocols and services are
not impacted during a
switchover or failover, with
the following exceptions:
• 802.1X is impacted if
re-authentication
does not occur in a
specific time window.
• MDPA is impacted if
re-authentication
does not occur in a
variable-length time
window.
• In some cases, a few
IP source guard
packets may be
permitted or dropped.
• If 802.1X and MDPA
are enabled together
on the same port,
both will be impacted
during a switchover
or failover. Hitless
support for these
features applies to
ports with 802.1X
only or multi-device
port authentication
only.
• For MAC port
security, secure
MACs are
synchronized
between the active
and standby
controllers, so they
are hitless. However,
denied MACs are lost
during a switchover
or failover but may be
relearned if traffic is
present.
Configured ACLs will
operate in a hitless
manner, meaning the
system will continue to
permit and deny traffic
during the switchover or
failover process. However,
dynamic ACLs are not
supported for hitless
switchover and failover.

failover, the new active
