Configuring Smartports Macros
Creating Smartports Macros
Beginning in privileged EXEC mode, follow these steps to create a Smartports macro:
Command
Step 1
configure terminal
Step 2
macro name macro-name
Step 3
end
Step 4
show parser macro name macro-name
The no form of the macro name global configuration command only deletes the macro definition. It
does not affect the configuration of those interfaces on which the macro is already applied.
This example shows how to create a macro that defines the switchport access VLAN and the number of
secure MAC addresses and also includes two help string keywords by using # macro keywords:
Switch(config)# macro name test
switchport access vlan $VLANID
switchport port-security maximum $MAX
#macro keywords $VLANID $MAX

Purpose
Enter global configuration mode.
Create a macro definition, and enter a macro name. A macro definition
can contain up to 3000 characters.
Enter the macro commands with one command per line. Use the @
character to end the macro. Use the # character at the beginning of a line
to enter comment text within the macro.
(Optional) You can define keywords within a macro by using a help
string to specify the keywords. Enter # macro keywords word to define
the keywords that are available for use with the macro. Separated by a
space, you can enter up to three help string keywords in a macro.
Macro names are case sensitive. For example, the commands macro
name Sample-Macro and macro name sample-macro will result in
two separate macros.
We recommend that you do not use the exit or end commands or change
the command mode by using interface interface-id in a macro. This
could cause any commands following exit, end, or interface
interface-id to execute in a different command mode. For best results,
all commands in a macro should be in the same configuration mode.
Return to privileged EXEC mode.
Verify that the macro was created.
