Configuring Dynamic-Access Ports on VMPS Clients

Before You Begin
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 in to the cluster member switch.
Caution Dynamic-access port VLAN membership is for end station s or hubs connected to end stations.
Connecting dynamic-access ports to other switches can cause a loss of connectivity.
Monitoring and Maintaining VLANs
Step 5 vmps retry count (Optional) Changes the retry count.
Step 6 end Returns to privileged EXEC mode.
Command Purpose
Command Purpose
Step 1 configure terminal Enters global configuration mode.
Step 2 interface interface-id Specifies the switch port that is connected to the end station, and
enters interface configuration mode.
Step 3 switchport mode access Sets the port to access mode.
Step 4 switchport access vlan dynamic Configures the port as eligible for dynamic VLAN membership.
The dynamic-access port must be connected to an end station.
Step 5 end Returns to privileged EXEC mode.
Command Purpose
copy running-config startup config Saves your entries in the configuration file
To save an extended-range VLAN configuration, you
need to save the VTP transparent mode configuration and
the extended-range VLAN configuration in the switch
startup configuration file. Otherwise, if the switch resets,
it will default to VTP server mode, and the
extended-range VLAN IDs will not be saved.
This step is not required for VTP version 3 because
VLANs are saved in the VLAN database.
show interfaces interface-id switchport Displays the switch port configuration of the interface.
show interfaces interface-id trunk Displays the trunk configuration of the interface.
show running-config interface interface-id Verifies the VLAN membership mode of the interface.
show vmps Verifies your VMPS entries.
show vlan Verifies your VLAN entries.
