Which Cisco IOS command is used on a Catalyst 2950 series switch to verify the port security configuration of
a switch port?

A.
show interfaces port-security

B.
show port-security interface

C.
show ip interface

D.
show interfaces switchport

Explanation:
The show port-security interface command displays the current port security and status of a switch port, as in
this sample output:

The sample output indicates that port security has been enabled on interface FastEthernet0/1, and that a
maximum of two MAC addresses has been configured. A violation policy of Shutdown indicates that if a third
MAC address attempts to make a connection, the switch port will be disabled.
The violation mode setting has three possible values that take the following actions when a violation occurs:
protect Drops packets with unknown source addresses until you remove a sufficient number of secure MAC
addresses to drop below the maximum value.
restrict Drops packets with unknown source addresses until you remove a sufficient number of secure MAC
addresses to drop below the maximum value and causes the SecurityViolation counter to increment. It will
send a Syslog message and an SNMP trap as well.
shutdown Puts the interface into the error-disabled state immediately and sends an SNMP trap notification
The show ip interface command is incorrect because it displays protocol-related information about an interface,
and nothing pertaining to switch port security.
The show interfaces switchport command is incorrect because it displays non-security related switch port
information, such as administrative and operational status and trunking.
The show interfaces port-security command is incorrect because this is not a valid Cisco command.
