Configuring Smartports Macros

You can create a new Smartports macro or use an existing macro as a template to create a new macro
that is specific to your application. After you create the macro, you can apply it globally to a switch or
to a switch interface or range of interfaces.

These sections contain this configuration information:

Default Smartports Macro Configuration

There are no Smartports macros enabled.

Smartports Macro Configuration Guidelines

Follow these guidelines when configuring macros on your switch:

When creating a macro, do not use the exit or end commands or change the command mode by using
interface interface-id. This could cause commands that follow exit, end, or interface interface-id
to execute in a different command mode.

When creating a macro, all CLI commands should be in the same configuration mode.

cisco-phone

Use this interface configuration macro when connecting a desktop device such as a
PC with a Cisco IP Phone to a switch port. This macro is an extension of the
cisco-desktop macro and provides the same security and resiliency features, but with
the addition of dedicated voice VLANs to ensure proper treatment of delay-sensitive
voice traffic.

cisco-switch

Use this interface configuration macro when connecting an access switch and a
distribution switch or between access switches connected using small form-factor
pluggable (SFP) modules.

cisco-router

Use this interface configuration macro when connecting the switch and a WAN
router.

cisco-wireless

Use this interface configuration macro when connecting the switch and a wireless
access point.

Cisco-default Smartports macros vary depending on the software version running on your switch.
