How Device-detect Profiles Work

Device-detect profiles enable dynamic port configuration without the use of a RADIUS server. Device-detect profiles and device-undetect profiles are triggered as described earlier in Device Triggers.

When a device connects to a port that has a device-detect profile configured, the switch runs the specified profile and stops. Only one device detect profile can be configured for a port, so the same profile runs each time a device is detected on the port. Only one device-undetect profile can be configured for a port, so the same profile is run each time the switch detects that all previously-connected devices are no longer connected.
