How the Smartport Feature Works

-
If the Auto Smartport Global Operational state, the interface Auto Smartport state,
and the Persistent Status are all Enable, the Smartport type is set to this dynamic
type.
-
Else the corresponding anti-macro is applied and the interfaces status is set to
Default.
Macro Failure and the Reset Operation
A Smartport macro might fail if there is a conflict between the existing configuration of the
interface and a Smartport macro.
When a Smartport macro fails, a SYSLOG message containing the following parameters is
sent:
•
Port number
•
Smartport type
•
The line number of the failed CLI command in the macro
When a Smartport macro fails on an interface, the status of the interface is set to Unknown.
The reason for the failure can be displayed in the
popup.
After the source of the problem is determined and the existing configuration or Smartport
macro is corrected, you must perform a reset operation to reset the interface before it can be
reapplied with a Smartport type (in the
Common Smartport Tasks
You can apply a Smartport macro to an interface by the macro name, or by the Smartport type
associated with the macro. Applying a Smartport macro by macro name can be done only
through the CLI, you should refer to the CLI guide for details.
Because support is provided for Smartport types which correspond to devices that do not allow
themselves to be discovered via CDP and/or LLDP, these Smartport types must be statically
assigned to the desired interfaces. This can be done by navigating to the
page, selecting the radio button of the desired interface, and clicking Edit. Then, select the
Smartport type you want to assign and adjust the parameters as necessary before clicking
Apply.
