Configure the Auto-sense Onboarding I-SID on the Switch

Note

This procedure does not apply to VSP 8600 Series and XA1400 Series.

About this task

Perform this procedure to configure the onboarding I-SID for ports that are operating in Auto-sense mode. The onboarding I-SID is typically used to onboard networking devices such as switches and non FA capable access points. By default, the onboarding I-SID provides automatic reachability when switches are booted from factory without a configuration file. For security reasons, the onboarding I-SID forms an isolated PVLAN/ETREE to block any unwanted port to port cross talk.

Procedure

Enter Global Configuration mode:

enable

configure terminal
Configure the onboarding I-SID:

auto-sense onboarding i-sid <1-15999999>

Example

Enter configuration commands, one per line. End with CNTL/Z.
Switch:1(config)#auto-sense onboarding i-sid 15000000
