Network (VMMAP) Authentication Configuration

If you only want to use network authentication, configure the Extreme Network Virtualization (XNV)-enabled switches as follows:

configure vm-tracking authentication database-order vm-map

After the repository server is configured (see Repository Server Setup), the following commands can be used to display the switch XNV feature status:

* Switch.32 # show vm-tracking repository
