Auto assignment of customers to ports

en | ru

For switches ports, you can enable so-called "Autoswitching of ports".

In the process, the ERP "UserSide" obtains information about the MAC addresses on the equipment ports. If these MAC addresses are known and belong to customers - then it performs commutation of the found customers with the ports.

The following logic is followed:

• when a managed switch is added, autoswitching is enabled for all ports
• autoswitching is enabled only if there is no MAC address or 1 MAC address on a port.
• if there is more than 1 MAC address on a port, autoswitching is disabled.
• if there is 1 MAC-address on the port and it belongs to a customer, the customer will switch to the port and autoswitching on this port will be switched off.
• if there is a MAC address on port 1 and its owner is unknown, autoswitching continues to work, waiting for the owner of the MAC address to be found out.

Autoswitching is executed when the scheduler job "2. Scheduler - Autosnap of the customers to the ports"
