Configuring VMPS
The VLAN Query Protocol (VQP) is used to support dynamic-access ports, which are not permanently
assigned to a VLAN, but give VLAN assignments based on the MAC source addresses seen on the port.
Each time an unknown MAC address is seen, the switch sends a VQP query to a remote VMPS; the query
includes the newly seen MAC address and the port on which it was seen. The VMPS responds with a
VLAN assignment for the port. The switch cannot be a VMPS server but can act as a client to the VMPS
and communicate with it through VQP.

Purpose
Return to global configuration mode.
Repeat Steps 2 through 4 on a second interface in Switch A.
Return to privileged EXEC mode.
Verify your entries. In the display, make sure that the interfaces are
configured as trunk ports.
When the trunk links come up, Switch A receives the VTP information
from the other switches. Verify that Switch A has learned the VLAN
configuration.
Enter global configuration mode.
Define the interface on which to set the STP cost, and enter interface
configuration mode.
Set the spanning-tree path cost to 30 for VLANs 2 through 4.
Return to global configuration mode.
Repeat Steps 9 through 12 on the other configured trunk interface on
Switch A, and set the spanning-tree path cost to 30 for VLANs 8, 9, and
10.
Return to privileged EXEC mode.
Verify your entries. In the display, verify that the path costs are set
correctly for both trunk interfaces.
(Optional) Save your entries in the configuration file.
