Defines additional ports on which candidate PE units can be discovered when the zero touch provisioning utility or SPX interactive-setup is enabled.

zero-touch-ports portlist
no zero-touch-ports portlist

By default, ports are not used for PE discovery.

portlist
Port, list of ports, port range, or combination to be used for discovering 802.1br (SPX) PE candidates.

CB configuration mode

The no form of the command disables zero-touch and spx-interactive probes on the specified ports and makes them available for other uses.

Only CB ports can be configured as zero-touch ports.

Port ranges for zero-touch ports are independent from SPX port or LAG ranges. Changing one range does not affect the other.

Ports designated as zero-touch ports are used only to discover new PE candidates. They do not modify existing SPX ports or LAGs. For example, if a user connects a new link between the CB and an existing PE unit, the new link is not discovered. The user must manually add or remove a port to or from an existing SPX link or SPX LAG.

RUCKUS recommends that zero-touch-ports designation be removed once all candidate PEs have been discovered. Once the designation is removed, the ports can be configured for other purposes.

The following example designates a range of ports from 1/1/10 through 1/1/20 as zero-touch ports. 


device# configure terminal
device(config)# spx cb-configure
device(config-spx-cb)# zero-touch-ports 1/1/10 to 1/1/20

The following example designates three independent ports (2/1/5, 2/1/7, and 3/1/9) as well as a range of ports (3/1/2 to 3/1/5) as zero-touch ports. 


device# configure terminal
device(config)# spx cb-configure
device(config-spx-cb)# zero-touch-ports 2/1/5 2/1/7 3/1/2 to 3/1/5  3/1/9

The following example removes thezero-touch-ports designation from two ports, 1/1/7 and 1/1/8. 


device# configure terminal
device(config)# spx cb-configure
device(config-spx-cb)# no zero-touch-ports 1/1/7 to 1/1/8
