> # About Enabling Auto-learning

> The state of the auto-learning configuration depends on the state of the port security feature:

> - If the port security feature is not activated, auto-learning is disabled by default.
> - If the port security feature is activated, auto-learning is enabled by default (unless you explicitly disabled this option).

> Tip If auto-learning is enabled on a VSAN, you can only activate the database for that VSAN by using the force option.
