macro apply Chapter 2 Catalyst 3560 Switch Cisco IOS Commands macro apply Use the macro apply interface configuration command to apply a macro to an interface or to apply and trace a macro configuration on an interface. macro {apply | trace} macro-name [parameter {value}] [parameter {value}] [parameter {value}] Syntax Description apply Apply a macro to the specified interface. trace Use the trace keyword to apply a macro to an interface and to debug the macro. macro-name Specify the name of the macro. parameter value (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. Defaults This command has no default setting. Command Modes Interface configuration Command History Release 12.1(19)EA1 12.2(18)SE Modification This command was introduced. The parameter value keywords were added. Usage Guidelines You can use the macro trace macro-name interface configuration command to apply and show the macros running on an interface or to debug the macro to find any syntax or configuration errors. If a command fails because of a syntax error or a configuration error when you apply a macro, the macro continues to apply the remaining commands to the interface. When creating a macro that requires the assignment of unique values, use the parameter value keywords to designate values specific to the interface. Keyword matching is case sensitive. All matching occurrences of the keyword are replaced with the corresponding value. Any full match of a keyword, even if it is part of a larger string, is considered a match and is replaced by 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. There are Cisco-default Smartports macros embedded in the switch software. You can display these macros and the commands they contain by using the show parser macro user EXEC command. 2-222 Catalyst 3560 Switch Command Reference 78-16405-05
