Configuring User-Definable SmartPorts Macros
These sections describe how to define and implement SmartPorts macros:

Overview
This section describes the user-definable SmartPorts macros:
•
Creating a macro—The user-definable macro approach is similar in concept to the
alias
command.
The
alias
command is an alias for only one command; the user-definable macro approach creates a
command set macro for one or more commands. The macros are created using the
set macro name
name
command after which you enter a list of commands that become part of the macro.
•
Creating variables for macros—When defining macros, some commands require parameters that
need to be specified by variables (such as the VLAN ID for Ethernet ports or the IP address for
ACLs). The variables are defined as “'keyword-value” pairs, where the first parameter must be the
name of the variable and the second parameter is its value. Each variable can be defined on a
per-port or global basis. The variables are created using the
set macro variable
name_of_variable
variable_value
mod/port
command. The variables and their values are stored in the switch in a
table/database. When a macro with a variable in its definition is applied to a port, the macro takes
the values from the table/database and executes the commands in the macro.
•
Displaying macros and variable definitions—To display macros and their variable definitions, enter
the
show macro
macro-name
command and the
show macro variable
[
all
] [
name
name_of_macro
]
[
mod/port
] command.
•
Applying a macro—After you create a macro, it needs to be applied to a port. When the macro is
applied to a port, if the macro contains any variables, the variables are replaced with the respective
values that are predefined in the table/database, and then the commands in the macro definition are
executed. To apply a macro to a port, enter the
set port macro
mod/port
name_of_macro
command.
