Configuring VLANs
Changing the Reconfirmation Interval
VMPS clients periodically reconfirm the VLAN membership information received from the VMPS.You
can set the number of minutes after which reconfirmation occurs.
Beginning in privileged EXEC mode, follow these steps to change the reconfirmation interval:
Command
Step 1
configure terminal
Step 2
vmps reconfirm minutes
Step 3
end
Step 4
show vmps
Step 5
copy running-config startup-config
To return the switch to its default setting, use the no vmps reconfirm global configuration command.
Changing the Retry Count
Beginning in privileged EXEC mode, follow these steps to change the number of times that the switch
attempts to contact the VMPS before querying the next server:
Command
Step 1
configure terminal
Step 2
vmps retry count
Step 3
end
Step 4
show vmps
Step 5
copy running-config startup-config
To return the switch to its default setting, use the no vmps retry global configuration command.
Monitoring the VMPS
You can display information about the VMPS by using the show vmps privileged EXEC command. The
switch displays this information about the VMPS:

Purpose
Enter global configuration mode.
Enter the number of minutes between reconfirmations of the dynamic
VLAN membership. The range is 1 to 120. The default is 60 minutes.
Return to privileged EXEC mode.
Verify the dynamic VLAN reconfirmation status in the Reconfirm Interval
field of the display.
(Optional) Save your entries in the configuration file.
Purpose
Enter global configuration mode.
Change the retry count. The retry range is 1 to 10; the default is 3.
Return to privileged EXEC mode.
Verify your entry in the Server Retry Count field of the display.
(Optional) Save your entries in the configuration file.
VMPS VQP Version—the version of VQP used to communicate with the VMPS. The switch queries
the VMPS that is using VQP Version 1.
Reconfirm Interval—the number of minutes the switch waits before reconfirming the
VLAN-to-MAC-address assignments.
Server Retry Count—the number of times VQP resends a query to the VMPS. If no response is
received after this many tries, the switch starts to query the secondary VMPS.
VMPS domain server—the IP address of the configured VLAN membership policy servers. The
switch sends queries to the one marked current. The one marked primary is the primary server.
