- 1. Implement VTP LAN Switching and Wireless – Chapter 4
- 2. Objectives Explain the role of VTP in a converged switched network Describe the operation of VTP: VTP domains, VTP Modes, VTP Advertisements, and VTP Pruning. Configure VTP on the switches in a converged network.
- 3. Explain the Role of VTP in a Converged Switched Network Explain the role of VTP in a multi-switch network
- 4. Describe the Operation of VTP Describe the importance of the default VTP configuration
- 5. Describe the Operation of VTP Explain the role of domains in VTP
- 6. Describe the Operation of VTP Describe how VTP exchanges domain and VLAN information between switches in the same VTP domain
- 7. Describe the Operation of VTP Describe the role VTP modes play in enabling VTP to distribute and synchronize domain and VLAN configuration information in a network
- 8. Describe the Operation of VTP Explain how VTP pruning functions
- 9. Configure VTP on the Switches in a Converged Network Configure VTP on a Cisco Catalyst Switch
- 10. Configure VTP on the Switches in a Converged Network Identify and troubleshoot common VTP configuration problems
- 11. Configure VTP on the Switches in a Converged Network Manage VLANs on a VTP enabled network
- 12. Summary VTP is a Cisco proprietary protocol used to exchange VLAN information across trunk links. A switch can be in one of 3 VTP operating modes Client Cannot create, modify or delete VLAN Server Can create, modify & delete VLAN Transparent Can create, modify, & delete LOCAL VLAN Forwards VTP advertisements.
- 13. Summary VTP pruning Limits unnecessary dissemination of VLAN information. Verify VTP configuration Show VTP status Show interfaces trunk
