User Guidelines
You can use the
macro global trace macro-name
Global Configuration mode
command to apply and show the macros running on the switch or to debug
the macro in order to locate any syntax or configuration errors.
If a command fails because of a syntax error or a configuration error when you
apply a macro, the macro nonetheless continues to apply the remaining
commands to the interface.
Use the parameter value keywords to designate values specific to the switch
when creating a macro that requires the assignment of unique value.
Keyword matching is case sensitive. All matching occurrences of the keyword
are replaced with the corresponding value. Any full match of a keyword, even
if it is part of a large string, is considered a match and replaced by the
corresponding value.
Some macros might contain keywords that require a parameter value. You can
use the
macro
global apply macro-name
command to display a list of any
required values in the macro. If you apply a macro without entering the
keyword values, the commands are considered invalid and are not applied.
When you apply a macro to the switch, the macro name is automatically
added to the switch. You can display the applied commands and macro names
by using the
show running-configuration
interface
user EXEC mode
command.
