SG2008P Port Security
I have a SG2008P in my Omada Controller where one of the ports is connected to an outdoor AP. I need to configure port security on this port to prevent anyone from plugging in. I don't see anything in the switch config on the controller but the manual says it supports port security. Does anyone know how to configure this?

@Clive_A Thanks for the reply. So you mean I have to disassociate it from my Omada controller? Why isn't it supported in the controller? Why did I spend 100 dollars on this switch only to use it in standalone mode?
You are correct. Have to disassociate it from the controller.
Unfortunately, that's the case now. This feature was never added to the Controller mode. No such feature in Controller mode, and it does not support CLI configuration to enable it.
I think it could be a limitation on the Controller. Similar requests have been sent but this feature was not fulfilled ever since the Omada Controller was published.

Port Security is currently a proprietary function that is available in the standalone mode.

Noticed someone suggested MAC address learning on Reddit. Will that work for you? MAC learning might be an alternative to doing what you want.
Set the MAC-learned address count to 1 and connect your AP to it. It should only allow this single device to get the Internet.

you can look at this link, i used it for a while but then it stopped working at some point and i haven't gotten it to work again, but it's possible i did something wrong somewhere. i haven't spent much time on it.
what is not stated in this link is that you have to set 802.1X Control to auto on the switch port otherwise all devices will connect.
nice if you test and give feedback, for me it doesn't work anymore,
