Short answer: What is the basic purpose of a VMPS?

Answer: When you move a user from one port to another using static VLANs, you have to change the configuration of the switch to reflect these changes. Using a VLAN Membership Policy Server (VMPS) results in these changes being performed dynamically, because the port's VLAN membership is decided by the source MAC address of the device connected to that port. (Yet another reason that the first value a switch looks at on an incoming frame is the source MAC address!)


ONT Exam:

Short answer: Name the three business-critical sub-categories of traffic created by SDM when using the QoS Wizard.
