13 © 2006 Cisco Systems, Inc. All rights reserved.BCMSN v Summary Switches in a VTP domain share VLAN information. VTP advertises VLAN information. VTP operates in one of three modes: server, client, or transparent. VTP Pruning uses available bandwidth more efficiently. VTP uses a specific process to distribute and synchronize VLAN information between switches. Various commands are used to configure and verify VTP operation on a switch. VTP commands should be applied in a particular order. Specific steps should be followed when adding a new switch to an existing VTP domain.
