VTP Configuration Guidelines

This section provides some guidelines for the configuration of VTP in the network.

• All switches have the same the VTP domain name, unless the network design insists for different VTP domains.
  Note: Trunk negotiation does not work across VTP domains. Refer to the Data Traffic Blocked between VTP Domains section of Troubleshooting VLAN Trunk Protocol (VTP) for more information.
  
• All switches in a VTP domain must run the same VTP version.
  
• All switches in a VTP domain has the same VTP password, if there is any.
  
• All VTP Server switch(es) should have the same configuration revision number and it should also be the highest in the domain.
  
• When you move a VTP mode of a switch from Transparent to Server, VLANs configured on the VTP Transparent switch should exist on the Server switch.
