Consider topology:

A --- Switch ---- B

In normal configuration MAC 'foo' can send even round-robin frame
from A and B. In port-security it can only switch between ports every
aging time. So if A--Switch connection breaks down, you have to wait
for aging time, before Switch---B connection can be used.
