Configure an I-SID for Auto-sense Fabric Attach Clients

For Zero Touch Deployment and assignments of dedicated I-SIDs for FA capable cameras, Wireless Access Points, FA proxy switches and Open Virtual Switches (OVS), configure a specific I-SID to use instead of the onboarding I-SID when a port is in an Auto-sense Fabric Attach (FA) state and detects an FA client.

Before you begin

  • Create the I-SID.

  • Associate the I-SID with either a platform or private VLAN; this association is not required on a DvR Leaf.

About this task

You can create only one I-SID of each type.

The FA I-SID can be the same as the voice I-SID because they are used by different Auto-sense port states.

Procedure

  1. Enter Global Configuration mode:

    enable

    configure terminal

  2. Configure the FA I-SID from the following choices:
    • For auto-sensed cameras: auto-sense fa camera i-sid <1-15999999>
    • For auto-sensed FA client switches that do not use FA message authentication, like EXOS or Switch Engine: auto-sense fa proxy-no-auth i-sid <1-15999999>
    • For auto-sensed virtual switches: auto-sense fa ovs i-sid <1-15999999>
    • For auto-sensed wireless access points (WAP): auto-sense fa wap-type1 i-sid <1-15999999>
