well I think port security would still be helpful.  Port security is
concerned with outgoing traffic from the port not incoming.

setting the security to allow only one MAC would prevent another computer
from using the port.

If another computer tried to use the port with the wrong MAC then the port
would shut down after 90 seconds.
