removed from the interface, and the anti-macro runs in exactly the same manner,
removing all of the configuration.
Auto Smartport
In order for Auto Smartport to automatically assign Smartport types to interfaces,
the Auto Smartport feature must be enabled globally and on the interfaces which
Auto Smartport should be allowed to configure. By default, Auto Smartport is
enabled and allowed to configure all interfaces. The Smartport type assigned to
each interface is determined by the CDP and LLDP packets received on the each
interface respectively.
•
If multiple devices are attached to an interface, a configuration profile that is
appropriate for all of the devices is applied to the interface if possible.
•
If a device is aged out (no longer receiving advertisements from other
devices), the interface configuration is changed according to its Persistent
Status. If the Persistent Status is enabled, the interface configuration is
retained. If not, the Smartport Type reverts to Default.
Enabling Auto Smartport
Enabling Auto Smartport
Auto Smartport can be enabled globally in the

page in the following
ways:
•

operation immediately.
•
Enable by Auto Voice VLAN
—This enables Auto Smartport to operate if,
and only if, Auto Voice VLAN is enabled and in operation. Enable by Auto
Voice VLAN is the default.

at the desired interface as well. By default, Auto Smartport is enabled at all the
interfaces.
