Finding Feature Information
Your software release may not support all the features documented in this module. For the latest caveats and
feature information, see Bug Search Tool and the release notes for your platform and software release. To
find information about the features documented in this module, and to see a list of the releases in which each
feature is supported, see the feature information table at the end of this module.
Use Cisco Feature Navigator to find information about platform support and Cisco software image support.
To access Cisco Feature Navigator, go to http://www.cisco.com/go/cfn. An account on Cisco.com is not
required.
Prerequisites for VTP
Before you create VLANs, you must decide whether to use the VLAN Trunking Protocol (VTP) in your
network. Using VTP, you can make configuration changes centrally on one or more switches and have those
changes automatically communicated to all the other switches in the network. Without VTP, you cannot send
information about VLANs to other switches.
