We are started New Playlist for CCNA 200-301 in this we are going to cover CCNA complete course.
This is Day 23 here we discuss VTP theory and Configuration.
If you face any issues put in comments we are going to assist you in that.
Thanks
VLAN Trunking Protocol VTP:
• In this video we are going to learn about VTP (VLAN Trunking Protocol). VTP is CISCO proprietary protocol.
• It allows you to add, edit or delete VLANS on switches configured as VTP Servers
• And have other switches configured as VTP Clients synchronize their VLAN database with them.
• I will give you example to explain VTP. If I have 30 Switches and 60 VLANs in my office.
Normally I need to configure each switch separately and create those VLANs on each and every switch. That take more time and if any thing missing we will have some issues.
• To overcome with this we use VTP (Virtual LAN Trunking Protocol).
• VTP will let you create VLANs in one switch and all the other switches will synchronize themselves.
• So First we need to put switch port in trunk mode which is connected to other switch’s.
• This can be convenient if you manage a large company.
• You will still need to perform port level VLAN configuration on the switches.
• Be careful if using VTP if you accidentally introduce a switch with a higher VLAN database revision number
into the domain it can wipe out (delete) all your production VLANs. If it don’t have all your production network VLANs &
it is a server that switch have by default then all working pc traffic go down.
VTP have 3 Modes:
1. VTP Server: In VTP Server we can add, edit or delete VLANS. A VTP Server will synchronize its VLAN database from another server with a higher revision number. A Default VTP Mode for all switches is Server.
2. VTP Client: In VTP Client we cannot add, edit or delete VLANs. A VTP Client will synchronize its VLAN database from the server with the highest revision number.
3. VTP Transparent: In VTP Transparent does not participate in the VTP Domain. Does not advertise or learn VLAN Information but will pass it on . Can add, edit or delete VLANs in its own local VLAN database.
VTP Configuration:
Vtp domain abc
Vtp mode server
Vtp mode client
Vtp mode transparent
Sh vtp staus — to check vtp status we use this command.
Vtp domain abc
Vtp mode client
