NOTE If only the IP Phone and Host bits are set, then the Smartport type is
ip_phone_desktop.
Multiple Devices Attached to the Port
The switch derives the Smartport type of a connected device via the capabilities
the device advertises in its CDP and/or LLDP packets.
If multiple devices are connected to the switch through one interface, Auto
Smartport considers each capability advertisement it receives through that
interface in order to assign the correct Smartport type. The assignment is based
on the following algorithm:
• If all devices on an interface advertise the same capability (there is no
conflict) the matching Smartport type is applied to the interface.
• If one of the devices is a switch, the
Switch
Smartport type is used.
• If one of the devices is an AP, the Wireless Access Point Smartport type is
used.
• If one of the devices is an IP phone and another device is a host, the
ip_phone_desktop Smartport type is used.
• If one of the devices is an IP phone desktop and the other is an IP phone or
host, the ip_phone_desktop Smartport type is used.
• In all other cases the default Smartport type is used.
