Configuring VLAN Trunking Protocol
This section describes how to configure the VLAN Trunking Protocol (VTP) on an EtherSwitch HWIC,
and contains the following tasks:
• Configuring a VTP Server, page 10
• Configuring a VTP Client, page 12
• Disabling VTP (VTP Transparent Mode), page 12
• Verifying VTP, page 13
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.
Follow the steps below to configure the switch as a VTP server.
SUMMARY STEPS
1. enable
2. vlan database
3. vtp server
4. vtp domain domain_name
5. vtp password password_value
6. exit
