A Smartport is an interface to which a built-in (or user-defined) macro may be
applied. These macros are designed to provide a means of quickly configuring the
switch to support the communication requirements and utilize the features of
various types of network devices. The network access and QoS requirements
vary if the interface is connected to an IP phone, a printer, or a router and/or
Access Point (AP).
Smartport types refers to the types of devices attached, or to be attached to
Smartports. The switch supports the following Smartport types:
•
Printer
•
Desktop
•
Guest
•
Server
•
Host
•
IP Camera
•
IP phone
•
IP Phone+Desktop
•
Switch
•
Router
•
Wireless Access Point

called "the anti-macro," serves to undo all configuration performed by "the macro"
when that interface happens to become a different Smartport type.
