Automatic configuration of switch port settings based on the device attached to the switch port |
摘要 |
A method includes, for each of a plurality of configured switch ports, identifying switch port settings being used by the configured switch port and device parameters of an installed device connected to the configured switch port. The method further includes correlating one or more of the device parameters to one or more of the switch port settings. In response to an additional device being connected to an additional switch port, the method obtains device parameters of the additional device and automatically configures the additional switch port to use the one or more of the switch port settings that are correlated to one or more of the device parameters matching the device parameters of the additional device. |

1. A method, comprising:
for each of a plurality of configured switch ports, identifying switch port settings being used by the configured switch port and device parameters of an installed device connected to the configured switch port; correlating one or more of the device parameters to one or more of the switch port settings; in response to an additional device being connected to an additional switch port, obtaining device parameters of the additional device; and automatically configuring the additional switch port to use the one or more of the switch port settings that are correlated to one or more of the device parameters matching the device parameters of the additional device. |
