nms vm-map local.
The switch attempts VM authentication in the sequence specified. For example, in the default configuration, the switch attempts NMS authentication first, VMMAP authentication second, and local authentication third. If nms is specified, the switch always attempts NMS authentication before attempting VMMAP file authentication.
The following command configures the database authentication order:
# configure vm-tracking authentication database-order local nms vm-map
