Configuring VMPS
VMPS Configuration Example
Figure 12-5 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 6000 series Switch 1 is the primary VMPS server.
• The Catalyst 6000 series Switch 3 and Switch 10 are secondary VMPS servers.
• End stations are connected to the Catalyst 3550 clients, Switch 2 and Switch 9.
• The database configuration file is stored on the TFTP server with the IP address 172.20.22.7.
