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.
Note
If the VMPS is being defined for a cluster of switches, enter the address on the command switch.
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
The switch port that is connected to the VMPS server cannot be a dynamic access port. It can be either
a static access port or a trunk port. See the
on page
78-11194-09
Dynamic access ports cannot be monitor ports.
Secure ports cannot be dynamic access ports. You must disable port security on a port before it
becomes dynamic.
Dynamic access ports cannot be members of an EtherChannel group.
Port channels cannot be configured as dynamic access ports.
A dynamic access port can participate in fallback bridging.
The VTP management domain of the VMPS client and the VMPS server must be the same.
VQP does not support extended-range VLANs (VLAN IDs higher than 1006). Extended-range
VLANs cannot be configured by VMPS.
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.
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.
