Configuring VMPS

Troubleshooting Dynamic-Access Port VLAN Membership

DETAILED STEPS

 

Command or Action

Purpose

Step 1

configure terminal

Enters the global configuration mode.

 

Example:

 

 

Switch# configure terminal

 

Step 2

vmps retry count

Example:

Switch(config)# vmps retry 5

Step 3

end

Example:

Switch(config)# end

Changes the retry count. The retry range is 1 to 10; the default is 3.

Note To return the switch to its default setting, use the no vmps retry global configuration command.

Returns to privileged EXEC mode.

Step 4

show vmps

Verifies your entry in the Server Retry Count field of the

 

 

display.

 

Example:

 

 

Switch# show vmps

 

Step 5

copy running-config startup-config

(Optional) Saves your entries in the configuration file.

 

Example:

 

 

Switch# copy running-config startup-config

 

Troubleshooting Dynamic-Access Port VLAN Membership

Problem The VMPS shuts down a dynamic-access port under these conditions:

Problem 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.

Problem More than 20 active hosts reside on a dynamic-access port.

Solution To reenable a disabled dynamic-access port, enter the shutdown interface configuration command followed by the no shutdown interface configuration command.
