Configuring VLAN Trunking Protocol
This section describes how to configure the VLAN Trunking Protocol (VTP) on an EtherSwitch EHWIC,
and contains the following sections:
• Configuring a VTP Server, page 8
• Configuring a VTP Client, page 9
• Disabling VTP (VTP Transparent Mode), page 9
• Verifying VTP, page 10
Note VTP pruning is not supported by EtherSwitch EHWICs.

throughout the network.
Beginning in global configuration mode, follow these steps to configure the switch as a VTP server.
SUMMARY STEPS
1. vtp mode server
2. vtp domain domain_name
3. vtp password password_value
4. exit
