Chapter 14 Configuring VTP
Configuring VTP
•
When VTP mode is changed in a switch in the stack, the other switches in the stack also change VTP
mode, and the switch VLAN database remains consistent.
VTP version 3 functions the same on a standalone switch or a stack except when the switch stack is the
primary server for the VTP database. In this case, the MAC address of the stack master is used as the
primary server ID. If the master switch reloads or is powered off, a new stack master is elected.
•
If you do not configure the persistent MAC address feature (by entering the
stack-mac persistent
timer
[
0
|
time-value
] global configuration command, when the new master is elected, it sends a
takeover message with the new master MAC address as the primary server.
•
If persistent MAC address is configured, the new master waits for the configured
stack-mac
persistent timer
value. If the previous master switch does not rejoin the stack during this time, then
the new master issues the takeover message.
For more information about the switch stack, see
Chapter 5, “Managing Switch Stacks.”
