Configuring Smartports Macros
Applying Smartports Macros
Beginning in privileged EXEC mode, follow these steps to apply a Smartports macro:
Command
Step 1
configure terminal
Step 2
macro global {apply | trace}
macro-name [parameter {value}]
[parameter {value}] [parameter
{value}]
Step 3
macro global description text
Step 4
interface interface-id
Step 5
default interface interface-id
Step 6
macro {apply | trace} macro-name
[parameter {value}] [parameter
{value}] [parameter {value}]
Step 7
macro description text
Step 8
end
Step 9
show parser macro description
[interface interface-id]
Step 10
copy running-config startup-config
You can delete a global macro-applied configuration on a switch only by entering the no version of each
command that is in the macro. You can delete a macro-applied configuration on an interface by entering
the default interface interface-id interface configuration command.
OL-12247-04
Purpose
Enter global configuration mode.
Apply each individual command defined in the macro to the switch by
entering macro global apply macro-name. Specify macro global trace
macro-name to apply and debug a macro to find any syntax or
configuration errors.
(Optional) Specify unique parameter values that are specific to the
switch. You can enter up to three keyword-value pairs. Parameter
keyword matching is case sensitive. All matching occurrences of the
keyword are replaced with 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 invalid and are
not applied.
(Optional) Enter a description about the macro that is applied to the
switch.
(Optional) Enter interface configuration mode, and specify the interface
on which to apply the macro.
(Optional) Clear all configuration from the specified interface.
Apply each individual command defined in the macro to the interface by
entering macro apply macro-name. Specify macro trace macro-name
to apply and debug a macro to find any syntax or configuration errors.
(Optional) Specify unique parameter values that are specific to the
interface. You can enter up to three keyword-value pairs. Parameter
keyword matching is case sensitive. All matching occurrences of the
keyword are replaced with the corresponding value.
Some macros might contain keywords that require a parameter value.
You can use the macro 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 invalid and are not
applied.
(Optional) Enter a description about the macro that is applied to the
interface.
Return to privileged EXEC mode.
Verify that the macro is applied to the interface.
(Optional) Save your entries in the configuration file.
