where to configure port security in WLC5500

[wfqk]

Hi we know how to configure port security on Cisco switch to limit some user on the switch port. In WLC/AP side, do we have command whose function is like: switchport port-security mac-address xxx.xxx.xxx" Thank you

You do not have similar commands in WLC/AP. What is the reason you looking for such configuration ?

If you want to limit number of devices can connect to given SSID, you can set a maximum limit, under WLAN -> Advanced ->maximum allowed clients

Thank you for your fast reply. In normal Cisco switch, we have two ways to control users to access some devices of network or login. One is aaa/TACACS etc, Another is to configure port security on mac address in each switch port. So what you mean is we only have one way to control accessing network by aaa/TACACS in WLC/AP, right?

Yes, if you want to control who can access WLC, then best way is do it via TACACS/RADIUS.

MAC based methods is not providing any security as you can spoof a mac address very easily
