vmps server

vmps server

Use the vmps server global configuration command on the switch stack or on a standalone switch to
configure the primary VLAN Membership Policy Server (VMPS) and up to three secondary servers. Use
the no form of this command to remove a VMPS server.

vmps server ipaddress [primary]

Syntax Description

Command Modes

Global configuration

Command History

Usage Guidelines

The first server entered is automatically selected as the primary server whether or not primary is
entered. The first server address can be overridden by using primary in a subsequent command.

When using the no form without specifying the ipaddress, all configured servers are deleted. If you
delete all servers when dynamic-access ports are present, the switch cannot forward packets from new
sources on these ports because it cannot query the VMPS.

Examples

This example shows how to configure the server with IP address 191.10.49.20 as the primary VMPS
server. The servers with IP addresses 191.10.49.21 and 191.10.49.22 are configured as secondary
servers:

Switch(config)# vmps server 191.10.49.20 primary

Switch(config)# vmps server 191.10.49.21

Switch(config)# vmps server 191.10.49.22

This example shows how to delete the server with IP address 191.10.49.21:

Switch(config)# no vmps server 191.10.49.21

You can verify your setting by entering the show vmps privileged EXEC command and examining
information in the VMPS Domain Server row.

ipaddress

IP address or hostname of the primary or secondary VMPS servers. If you specify a
hostname, the Domain Name System (DNS) server must be configured.

primary

(Optional) Decides whether primary or secondary VMPS servers are being
configured.
