Configuring VMPS

Configuring the VMPS Client
You configure dynamic VLANs by using the VMPS (server). The switch can be a VMPS client; it cannot
be a VMPS server.
Entering the IP Address of the VMPS
You must first enter the IP address of the server to configure the switch as a client.
If the VMPS is being defined for a cluster of switches, enter the address on the command switch.
Note
Beginning in privileged EXEC mode, follow these steps to enter the IP address of the VMPS:
Command
Step 1
configure terminal
Step 2
vmps server ipaddress primary
Step 3
vmps server ipaddress
Step 4
end
Step 5
show vmps
Step 6
copy running-config startup-config
Note
You must have IP connectivity to the VMPS for dynamic-access ports to work. You can test for IP
connectivity by pinging the IP address of the VMPS and verifying that you get a response.
Configuring Dynamic-Access Ports on VMPS Clients
If you are configuring a port on a cluster member switch as a dynamic-access port, first use the
rcommand privileged EXEC command to log into the cluster member switch.
Dynamic-access port VLAN membership is for end stations or hubs connected to end stations.
Caution
Connecting dynamic-access ports to other switches can cause a loss of connectivity.

The VTP management domain of the VMPS client and the VMPS server must be the same.
The VLAN configured on the VMPS server should not be a voice VLAN.
Purpose
Enter global configuration mode.
Enter the IP address of the switch acting as the primary VMPS server.
(Optional) Enter the IP address of the switch acting as a secondary VMPS
server.
You can enter up to three secondary server addresses.
Return to privileged EXEC mode.
Verify your entries in the VMPS Domain Server field of the display.
(Optional) Save your entries in the configuration file.
