VLAN Membership Policy Server
Two topologies are possible. Figure10-5 illustrates a topology with one end station attached directly to
a Catalyst 4500 series switch operating as a VMPS client. Figure 10-6 illustrates a topology with an end
station attached to a Cisco IP Phone, which is attached to a Catalyst 4500 series switch.

Figure10-6 Dynamic Port VLAN Membership Configuration
In the following procedure, the Catalyst 4000 and Catalyst 6000 series switches (running C atOS) are the
VMPS servers. Use this procedure to configure the Catalyst 4500 series switch clients in the network:
Step1 Configure the VMPS server addresses on Switch 2, the client switch.
a. Starting from privileged EXEC mode, enter global configuration mode:
switch# configuration terminal
b. Enter the primary VMPS server IP address:
switch(config)# vmps server 172.20.26.150 primary
c. Enter the secondary VMPS server IP addresses:
switch(config)# vmps server 172.20.26.152
d. To verify your entry of the VMPS IP addresses, return to privileged EXEC mode:
switch#(config) exit
e. Display VMPS information configured for the switch:
switch# show vmps
