By default, each Smartport type is associated with a pair of built-in Smartport
macros. See the
Smartport Types
page for further information on macro versus
anti-macro. Alternatively, you can associate your own pair of user-defined macros
with customized configurations to a Smartport type. User-defined macros can be
prepared only through CLI. You should refer to the CLI reference guide for details.
Built-in or user-defined macros can have parameters. The built-in macros have up
to three parameters.
Editing these parameters for the Smartport types applied by Auto Smartport from
the
Smartport Type Settings
page configures the default values for these
parameters. These defaults will be used by Auto Smartport.
NOTE
Changes to Auto Smartport types will cause the new settings to be applied to
interfaces which have already been assigned that type by Auto Smartport. In this
case, binding an invalid macro or setting an invalid default parameter value will
cause all ports of this Smartport type to become unknown.
