Switch Port Automation Tool

[kevin.a15]

Hello,

I was wondering if anyone is aware of a utility (paid or free) that is capable of applying configuration changes to a switch's interface through a web GUI (please see more specifics below)

We would like to be able to select a switch port template from a drop down menu (Example: Shutdown, Access Port (Data Only), Access Port (Data + Voip VLANS, etc).

Example of Shutdown port template:

interface GigabitEthernet1/0/1
switchport access vlan 5
shutdown
switchport mode access
switchport nonegotiate
switchport port-security maximum 5
switchport port-security
switchport port-security aging time 1
load-interval 30
storm-control broadcast level 60.00
spanning-tree portfast
spanning-tree bpduguard enable
spanning-tree guard root
end

Example of Access and VOIP Port Template:

interface GigabitEthernet1/0/1
switchport access vlan [ACCESS VLAN]
switchport voice vlan [VOIP VLAN]
auto qos voip cisco-phone
switchport mode access
switchport nonegotiate
switchport port-security maximum 5
switchport port-security
switchport port-security aging time 1
load-interval 30
storm-control broadcast level 60.00
spanning-tree portfast
spanning-tree bpduguard enable
spanning-tree guard root
end

We would also like to have the ability to select a Switch port's VLAN assignment using a drop down menu (Voice + Data VLAN assignment if the switch is configured both both).

By implementing a tool that utilizes the functionality above we would be able to ensure that switch port configuration's are standardized (large IT department).

Thank you for your assistance,

Kevin

I think you are talking about Auto SmartPort (ASP)

HI Leo,

Thank you for the reply. Auto SmartPort is a useful functionality but not quite exactly what we are looking for. We are looking for something similar to InfoBlox's Switch Port Manager, Automation as the rest of our IT department commonly has to make config changes but we would like to ensure the changes are unified across the board.

Auto SmartPort is definitely an option, but we would like to give our colleagues the ability to manually choose which switch port template is assigned, and the ability to change VLAN assignments, etc without establishing an SSH session.

Thanks again,

Kevin A
