Smartport types are named so that they describe the type of device connected to
an interface. Each Smartport type is associated with two Smartport macros. One
macro, called "the macro" serves to apply the desired configuration. The other,
called "the anti-macro," serves to undo all configuration performed by "the macro"
when that interface happens to become a different Smartport type.
You can apply a Smartport macro by the following methods:
•
The associated Smartport type.
•
Statically from a Smartport macro by name only from the CLI.
A Smartport macro can be applied by its Smartport type statically from CLI and
GUI, and dynamically by Auto Smartport. Auto Smartport derives the Smartport
types of the attached devices based on CDP capabilities, LLDP system
capabilities, and/or LLDP-MED capabilities.
