Syntax Description

vpex Specifies Virtual Port Extender (VPEX).
auto-configuration Specifies disabling automatic configuration of the Extended Edge Switching architecture.

Default

Disabled.

Usage Guidelines

Auto-configuration allows the controlling bridge switch to detect new BPEs connected to ports not configured as cascade ports, and automatically configure cascade ports, LAG membership, MLAG (Multi-switch Link Aggregation Group) ports, and extended slots. This command disables this auto-configuring capability.

To disable auto-configuration, you must first enter VPEX mode (see enable vpex).

The following example disables auto-configuration mode:
