Auto assignment of customers to ports
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 users - then it performs commutation of the found users 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 user, the user 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 users to the ports"
