򐂰 In the examples, as part of the base configuration, the switch named 6500-1 will be forced
to become the primary root switch as part of its base configuration. This will be done by
running the spanning-tree vlan X,Y,Z root primary command such that A, Y, and Z are
VLANs in use on the switches. 6500-3 will be configured as spanning-tree vlan X,Y,Z
root secondary.
򐂰 The VTP domain name will be set to IBMLAB as part of the base configuration. We
recommend that you use the same VTP domain name throughout the data center. In
addition, as part of the base configuration, both 6500s will be set to VTP transparent
mode.
