Macro Failure and the Reset Operation

If the Startup Configuration File specifies a static Smartport type, the
Smartport type of the interface is set to this static type.
If the Startup Configuration File specifies a Smartport type that was
dynamically assigned by Auto Smartport:
- If the Auto Smartport Global Operational state, the interface Auto
Smartport state, and the Persistent Status are all Enable, the Smartport
type is set to this dynamic type.
- Else the corresponding anti-macro is applied and the interfaces status is
set to Default.
Macro Failure and the Reset Operation
A Smartport macro might fail if there is a conflict between the existing
configuration of the interface and a Smartport macro.
When a Smartport macro fails, a SYSLOG message containing the following
parameters is sent:
Port number
Smartport type
The line number of the failed CLI command in the macro
When a Smartport macro fails on an interface, the status of the interface is set to
Unknown. The reason for the failure can be displayed in the Interface Settings
page, Show Diagnostics popup.
After the source of the problem is determined and the existing configuration or
Smartport macro is corrected, you must perform a reset operation to reset the
interface before it can be reapplied with a Smartport type (in the Interface
Settings pages). See the workflow area in Common Smartport Tasks section for
troubleshooting tips.
