Chapter 17 Configuring VLANs, VTP, and VMPS
VLAN Trunking Protocol
This example shows one way to enable VTP version 2:
Switch#
configure terminal
Switch(config)#
vtp version 2
V2 mode enabled.
Switch(config)#
This example shows how to enable VTP version 2 with any release:
Switch#
vtp version 2
V2 mode enabled.
Switch#
This example shows how to verify the configuration:
Switch#
show vtp status | include V2
VTP V2 Mode: Enabled
Switch#
Configuring the VTP Mode
To configure the VTP mode, perform this task:
Note
When VTP is disabled, you can enter VLAN configuration commands in configuration mode instead of
the VLAN database mode and the VLAN configuration is stored in the startup configuration file.
This example shows how to configure the switch as a VTP server:
Switch#
configure terminal
Switch(config)#
vtp mode server
Setting device to VTP SERVER mode.
Switch(config)#
vtp domain Lab_Network
Setting VTP domain name to Lab_Network
Switch(config)#
end
Switch#
This example shows how to configure the switch as a VTP client:
Switch#
configure terminal
Switch(config)#
vtp mode client
Setting device to VTP CLIENT mode.
Switch(config)#
end
Switch#
Command
Purpose
Step 1
Switch(config)#
vtp mode
{
client
|
server
|
transparent
|
off
}
Configures the VTP mode.
Step 2
Switch(config)#
vtp domain
domain_name
(Optional; for server mode only) Defines the VTP domain
name, which can be up to 32 characters long. VTP server
mode requires a domain name. If the switch has a trunk
connection to a VTP domain, the switch learns the
domain name from the VTP server in the domain.
Note
You cannot clear the domain name.
Step 3
Switch(config)#
end
Exits VLAN configuration mode.
Step 4
Switch#
show vtp status
(Optional) Verifies the configuration.
