Cambium cnMatrix - Auto Attach Policy

Cambium has a great feature where you can configure devices to automatically self configure the ethernet ports based on MAC address, MAC OUI, LLDP and many more.

The aim of this guide is to show you the process.

There are three basic steps which are:

1. Create a Rule

2. Create an Action

3. Create a Policy

So that the Auto Attach Policy doesn't modify any uplinks or static ports it needs to be disabled on those ports.

• configure terminal

• gi 0/24

• no lldp pba-tlv-select authentication

The first step is to create a rule against the MAC or LLDP value you wish to use in this guide we will be demonstrating MAC-OUI

• auto-attach rule CCTV-1 MAC-OUI "F0:7D:68"

The second step is to determine what is to occur based on the rule above. In this instance, the device will be placed into VLAN 9 with the PVID set to 9 and the uplink port set to Gi0/24

• auto-attach action CCTV-1-action vlan 9 pvid 9 uplink Gi0/24

The last step is to combine the rule and action together into a policy so it takes effect.

• auto-attach policy CCTV-1-policy match rule CCTV-1 set action CCTV-1-action
