Smartports Smartport Types 10 Smartport and Auto Smartport Types Smartport Type Supported by Auto Smartport Switch Yes Router Yes Wireless Access Yes Point Supported by Auto Smartport by default Yes No Yes Special Smartport Types There are two special Smartport types; default and unknown. These two types are not associated with macros, but they exist to signify the state of the interface regarding Smartport. The following describe these special Smartport types: • Default An interface that does not (yet) have a Smartport type assigned to it has the Default Smartport status. If Auto Smartport assigns a Smartport type to an interface and the interface is not configured to be Auto Smartport Persistent, then its Smartport type is re-initialized to Default in the following cases: - A link down/up operation is performed on the interface. - The switch is restarted. - All devices attached to the interface have aged out, which is defined as the absence of CDP and/or LLDP advertisement from the device for a specified time period. • Unknown If a Smartport macro is applied to an interface and an error occurs, the interface is assigned the Unknown status. In this case, the Smartport and Auto Smartport features do not function on the interface until you correct the error and applies the Reset action (performed in the Interface Settings pages) that resets the Smartport status.
