Is there a way to secure a port down to a single MAC address? This is
on a Catalyst 4006 with IOS 11.

There are other means, such as dot1x and vpms. But, this is the
simple/quick way to do it.

interface FastEthernet0/1
switchport mode access
switchport port-security
switchport port-security maximum 1
switchport port-security mac-address xxxx.xxxx.xxxx
spanning-tree portfast

There are different options on what to do if an illegal address comes in the
port than what you have listed.
