This is an example of output for the show vmps privileged EXEC command :
Switch# show vmps

VMPS Action: No Dynamic Port
Troubleshooting Dynamic Port VLAN Membership
The VMPS shuts down a dynamic port under these conditions:
•The VMPS is in secure mode, and it does not allow the host to connect to the port. The VMPS shuts
down the port to prevent the host from connecting to the network.
•More than 20 active hosts reside on a dynamic port.
To re-enable a disabled dynamic port, enter the no shutdown interface configuration command.
VMPS Configuration Example
Figure 13-5 shows a network with a VMPS server switch and VMPS client switches with dynamic ports.
In this example, these assumptions apply:
•The VMPS server and the VMPS client are separate switches.
•The Catalyst 5000 series Switch 1 is the primary VMPS server.
•The Catalyst 5000 series Switch 3 and Switch 10 are secondary VMPS servers.
•The end stations are connected to these clients:
–
Catalyst 2940 Switch 2
–
Catalyst 2940 Switch 9
•The database configuration file is stored on the TFTP server with the IP address 172.20.22.7.
