Dynamic Port VLAN Membership Configuration Example

Figure 10-4 on page 10-26 shows a network with a VMPS servers 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 4000 family Switch 1 (running CatOS) is the primary VMPS server.
The Catalyst 6000 family Switch 3 (running CatOS) and the URT are secondary VMPS servers.
End stations are connected to these clients:

Catalyst 4500 series XL Switch 2 (running Catalyst IOS)

Catalyst 4500 series XL Switch 9 (running Catalyst IOS)

The database configuration file is called Bldg-G.db and is stored on the TFTP server with the IP

address 172.20.22.7.
