Use the macro global global configuration command on the switch stack or on a standalone switch to
apply a macro to a switch or to apply and trace a macro configuration on a switch.

[parameter {value}]
Syntax Description
Defaults This command has no default setting.
Command Modes Global configuration
Command History
Usage Guidelines You can use the macro trace macro-name global configuration command to apply and to show the
macros running on a switch 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 switch.
When creating a macro that requires the assignment of unique values, use the parameter value keywords
to designate values specific to the switch.
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 global
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.
apply Apply a macro to the switch.
trace Apply a macro to a switch 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 switch. 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.
