Configuring VLAN Trunking Protocol
This section describes how to configure the VLAN Trunking Protocol (VTP) on an EtherSwitch HWIC,
and contains the following sections:
• Configuring a VTP Server, page 9
• Configuring a VTP Client, page 10
• Disabling VTP (VTP Transparent Mode), page 10
• Verifying VTP, page 11
Note VTP pruning is not supported by EtherSwitch HWICs.
Configuring a VTP Server
When a switch is in VTP server mode, you can change the VLAN configuration and have it propagate
throughout the network.
Beginning in privileged EXEC mode, follow these steps to configure the switch as a VTP server.
SUMMARY STEPS
1. vlan database
2. vtp server
3. vtp domain domain _ name
4. vtp password password _ value
