Did you apply the same configuration to Fa0/3, Fa0/4, and Fa0/5?

[Edison Ortiz]

You can't apply the same static secure MAC address on different ports.

I reviewed your diagram and can you explain how those hosts will connect to the same port? VMWare?

If you are using VMWare, we don't recommend applying port-security because if the MAC address is learned via a different port, it will be shutdown due to a violation.
