CCNA – Semester 3 Chapter 4: VTP VLAN Trunking Protocol CCNA Exploration 4.0 2 Objectives • Explain the role of VTP in a converged switched network. • Describe the operation of VTP including domains, modes, advertisements, and pruning. • Configure VTP on the switches in a converged network. 3 VTP Concepts 4 What is VTP? • VTP allows a network manager to configure a switch so that it will propagate VLAN configurations to other switches in the network. The switch can be configured in the role of a VTP server or a VTP client. VTP only learns about normal-range VLANs (VLAN IDs 1 to 1005). Extended-range VLANs (IDs greater than 1005) are not supported by VTP. 5 Benefits of VTP 6 VTP Components • VTP Domain: Consists of one or more interconnected switches. All switches in a domain share VLAN configuration details using VTP advertisements. A router or Layer 3 switch defines the boundary of each domain. 7 VTP Components • VTP Modes: A switch can be configured in one of three modes: – Server – Client – Transparent. 8 VTP Components • VTP Advertisements: VTP uses a hierarchy of advertisements to distribute and synchronize VLAN configurations across the network. 9 VTP Components • VTP Pruning: VTP pruning increases network available bandwidth by restricting flooded traffic to those trunk links that the traffic must use to reach the destination devices. Without VTP pruning, a switch floods broadcast, multicast, and unknown unicast traffic across all trunk links within a VTP domain even though receiving switches might discard them.
