QuestionQ13

Switching

A customer is evaluating device profiles on a CX 6300 switch. The test device has these attributes:

  • MAC address = 81:cd:93:13:ab:31
  • LLDP sys-desc = iotcontroller

The test device is assigned the iot-dev role. However, the customer requires the iot-prod role to be applied.

Given the configuration, what causes the iot-dev role to be applied to the device?

Explanation

The LLDP system description matches lldp-group iot-lldp, which is associated with the iot-dev device profile. When criteria match multiple device profiles, AOS-CX gives LLDP matches precedence over CDP and local MAC matches; therefore, the LLDP-based iot-dev profile overrides the MAC-based iot-prod profile.
