3560CX USB Type A disable

TomasSuarez

Level 1

I'm trying to disable the USB type A interfaces from my Catalyst 3560CX switch for security reasons. Is it possible? I've found that some other models of routers and switches support it by means of hw-module command, but it seems that the 3560CX doesn't. Please someone can confirm if it is possible or not to disable it. Thanks.

Personally i do not belive you have support of this in Switches. If any one can able to access USB Port, then you have bigger problem of physical security.

Super-glue the USB port.

Another thing, if someone can have un-authorized access to the USB port, then the USB port is the least of your worries.
