  • 1.  Disable 2nd Ethernet Port

    Posted Jan 18, 2022 07:22 PM
    I am looking to administratively shut down Ethernet port 1 on the APs in my environment.
    Presently, I have the default profile assigned to the AP Group.
    With the default profile, I have the Ethernet port 1 assigned the port profile of shutdown. 
    !
ap-group "default" 
virtual-ap "A0001_DATA_10" 
dot11a-radio-profile "default_radio_a_ui" 
dot11g-radio-profile "default_radio_g_ui" 
dot11-6GHz-radio-profile "default_radio11_ghz6_ui" 
enet1-port-profile "shutdown" 
regulatory-domain-profile "A0001_regulatory_domain" 
!​


    Unfortunately, I still cannot get Ethernet Port 1 to administratively shutdown.  See below.

    show ap port status ap-name AP_005

    Any ideas on what I am missing in order to successfully shut down Ethernet Port 1?

    Thank you.

    Can you post the configuration of enet profile? Is the admin status indeed set to down?

    Hi, See these screenshots.
    As you can see, there is an option for shutdown, but nothing that I can see in either the Web GUI or CLI that explicitly gives an option for administratively shutting down the 2nd Ethernet port (ETH1 in this case).


    Thank you.

    Good Morning Herman,

    Will do, and thank you for confirming this in your lab environment.

    Eronetix,

    Here's something to check. The enet1-port-profile is named "shutdown", but have you looked in that profile to confirm that the shutdown setting within that profile is actually shutdown:

     

    (TestController) [MDC] *#show ap wired-port-profile NoAuthWiredPort

     

    AP wired port profile "NoAuthWiredPort" (Predefined)

    --------------------------------------------------------------

    Parameter                                   Value

    ---------                                   -----

    Wired AP profile                            NoAuthWiredAp

    Ethernet interface link profile             default

    AP LLDP profile                             default

    Shut down                                   No              <-----------------------------------------------

    Remote-AP Backup                            Enabled

    AAA Profile                                 NoAuthAAAProfile

    Bridge Role                                 N/A

    Time to wait for authentication to succeed  20 sec

    Spanning Tree                               Disabled

    Portfast                                    Disabled

    Portfast on trunk                           Disabled

    Loop Protect Enable                         Disabled

    Loop Detection Interval                     2

    Storm Control Broadcast                     Disabled

    Storm Control Broadcast Threshold           2000

    Auto Recovery Enable                        Disabled

    Auto Recovery Interval                      300

    (TestController) [MDC] *#

     

    Mine is NOT shutdown. Hope this helps.

     

    Thanks,

    Brad

    Hi Brad,

    Thanks for the comments.  Yes - The profile that ETH1 is tied to is the shutdown profile.  Here is the CLI output for it:

    #show ap wired-port-profile shutdown 

AP wired port profile "shutdown" (Predefined)
---------------------------------------------
Parameter                                   Value
---------                                   -----
Wired AP profile                            default
Ethernet interface link profile             default
AP LLDP profile                             default
Shut down                                   Yes
Remote-AP Backup                            Enabled
AAA Profile                                 N/A
Time to wait for authentication to succeed  20 sec
Spanning Tree                               Disabled
Portfast                                    Disabled
Portfast on trunk                           Disabled
Loop Protect Enable                         Disabled
Loop Detection Interval                     2
Storm Control Broadcast                     Disabled
Storm Control Broadcast Threshold           2000
Auto Recovery Enable                        Disabled
Auto Recovery Interval                      300​


    Unfortunately, the Ethernet port (ETH1) will still stay up with this shutdown profile applied to it.

    This can be done per AP

    I guess same should be able to achieve via ap-group.

    Hi Predrag,

    Yes, I agree this can/could be done per AP.
    My desired end-state in this case is to achieve the admin shutdown of the port(s) at the ap-group level.

    I opened a case with TAC on this.  I'll add more to this thread as I get an update from them.

    Eronetix,

    Did TAC ever have a usable response?
