Cisco Catalyst 2960 Series User Manual

•
For VTP version 1 or 2, you can set the VTP mode to transparent in global configuration mode. You
should save this configuration to the startup configuration so that the switch boots up in VTP transparent
mode. Otherwise, you lose the extended-range VLAN configuration if the switch resets. If you create
extended-range VLANs in VTP version 3, you cannot convert to VTP version 1 or 2.
•
Although the switch stack supports a total of 1000 (normal-range and extended-range) VLANs, the
number of configured features affects the use of the switch hardware. If you try to create an extended-range
VLAN and there are not enough hardware resources available, an error message is generated, and the
extended-range VLAN is rejected.
•
In a switch stack, the whole stack uses the same running configuration and saved configuration, and
extended-range VLAN information is shared across the stack.

Default VLAN Configurations
Default Ethernet VLAN Configuration
The following table displays the default configuration for Ethernet VLANs.
The switch supports Ethernet interfaces exclusively. Because FDDI and Token Ring VLANs are not
locally supported, you only configure FDDI and Token Ring media-specific characteristics for VTP global
advertisements to other switches.
