Introduction

This document describes the configuration of the VLAN Trunking Protocol (VTP) on Catalyst switches.

Prerequisites

Requirements

There are no specific requirements for this document.

Components Used

This document covers various Catalyst switch models and is not restricted to specific software versions.

The information in this document was created from the devices in a specific lab environment. All of the devices used in this document started with a cleared (default) configuration. If your network is live, ensure that you understand the potential impact of any command.

Background Information

VTP reduces administration in a switched network. When you configure a new VLAN on one VTP server, the VLAN is distributed through all switches in the domain. This reduces the need to configure the same VLAN everywhere. VTP is a Cisco-proprietary protocol that is available on most of the Cisco Catalyst series products.

Refer to Understand VLAN Trunk Protocol (VTP) for more information on VTP.

VTP Configuration Guidelines

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

  • All switches must share the same VTP domain name, unless the network design requires different VTP domains

    Note: Trunk negotiation does not work across VTP domains. Refer to the Data Traffic Blocked between VTP Domains section of Configure 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 have the same VTP password, if there are any.

  • For VTP versions 1 and 2, verify the configuration revision before you connect a switch to an existing VTP domain. A switch in VTP server or client mode that has a higher configuration revision and matching VTP domain name and password, when configured, can cause other switches to replace their VLAN database. Reset the configuration revision to 0 with a platform supported procedure before you connect the switch.

  • When you make a change to the VLAN configuration on a VTP server, the change is propagated to all switches in the VTP domain.

  • If you configure a switch for VTP transparent mode, you can create and modify VLANs, but the changes are not sent to other switches in the domain, and they affect only the individual switch.

Note: For new deployments that require VTP, use VTP version 3 on supported platforms and software releases. Validate platform compatibility and deployment requirements before a migration from VTP version 1 or 2.

VTP Configuration on Catalyst Switches

This section provides some basic commands in order to configure VTP on the most commonly used Catalyst switches.

This section describes two methods in order to configure VTP. Method availability depends on the Catalyst platform and Cisco IOS Software release. Use VLAN database mode only on releases that support this legacy method. Use global configuration mode on supported current releases.

  1. Method 1. VLAN database mode (legacy)

    In supported legacy Cisco IOS Software releases, you can configure the VTP domain name, VTP mode, and VLANs in VLAN database mode.

    1. In EXEC mode, run this command in order to enter VLAN database mode:

      Switch#vlan database

!--- Issue this command in privileged EXEC mode, 
!--- not in global configuration mode.

Switch(vlan)#

!--- This is VLAN configuration mode. 

    2. Issue this command in order to set the VTP domain name:

      Switch(vlan)#vtp domain example

    3. Issue this command in order to set the VTP mode:

      Switch(vlan)#vtp {client | server | transparent}

    4. Issue the exit command in order to exit VLAN configuration mode.

      Note: The end and the Ctrl-Z commands are not supported in this mode.

      Switch(vlan)#end

Switch(vlan)#^Z

% Invalid input detected at '^' marker.

Switch(vlan)#

Swtch(vlan)#exit

APPLY completed.
Exiting....
Switch#

  2. Method 2. Global Configuration mode

    In Cisco IOS and Cisco IOS XE global configuration mode, you can configure all VTP parameters by running the next commands:

    Switch#configure terminal
Enter configuration commands, one per line.  End with CNTL/Z.
Switch(config)#vtp ?

domain     Set the name of the VTP administrative domain.
file       Configure IFS filesystem file where VTP configuration is stored.
interface  Configure interface as the preferred source for the VTP IP updater
           address. 
mode       Configure VTP device mode
password   Set the password for the VTP administrative domain
pruning    Set the administrative domain to permit pruning
version    Set the administrative domain to VTP version


Switch(config)#vtp domain ?
  WORD  The ascii name for the VTP administrative domain.

Switch(config)#vtp domain example
Changing VTP domain name from example to example
Switch(config)#vtp mode server
Switch(config)#end

  3. Run these commands in order to verify VTP operation and status:

    Switch#show vtp status 
VTP Version capable             : 1 to 3
VTP version running             : 2

Practical Examples

Example 1. This example involves two Catalyst 4500 switches that are connected by a TenGigabitEthernet link:

Step 1. Switch-A is a new switch that has no VTP domain name and no user-configured VLANs. Switch-C is a switch that currently exists and runs with 16 VLANs in the VTP domain test.

Step 2. In this sample output from the show vtp status command, you can see that the VTP version is defaulted to 1. And Switch-A is VTP V2-capable. However, the switch does not run VTP V2 in this case. The switch only runs VTP V2 if the V2 version is configured with the vtp version 2 command. In this example, Switch-A is configured as VTP Client. Before you connect the switch to the VTP domain,ensure that its VTP mode, version, domain name, password, and configuration revision are correct. For VTP versions 1 and 2, reset the configuration revision with a platform supported procedure and verify the revision is 0 or has a lower value than current VTP Server before connection.

Step 3. At this stage, a trunk was manually created between the two switches. Notice how they synchronize and watch the VTP packet exchange:

note-icon

Note: Debug output increases processor and logging activity. You must run these commands in a controlled environment.

Switch-A#debug sw-vlan vtp events 
vtp events debugging is on
Switch-A#debug sw-vlan vtp packets 
vtp packets debugging is on
Switch-A#
Switch-A#configure terminal
Enter configuration commands, one per line.  End with CNTL/Z.
Switch-A(config)#interface tenGigabitEthernet3/2
Switch-A(config-if)#no shut
Switch-A(config-if)#end
Switch-A#  

Step 4. Switch-C sends a summary advertisement to Switch-A. Switch-A then learns the VTP domain name from it, as shown in this sample output:

!--- On Switch-A:

*Nov 25 02:45:46.580: VTP LOG RUNTIME: switchport trunk mode on Te3/2 has changed

*Nov 25 02:45:46.580: VTP LOG RUNTIME: delaying first flood on new trunk

*Nov 25 02:45:51.100: VTP LOG RUNTIME: Summary packet received in NULL domain state

*Nov 25 02:45:51.100: VTP LOG RUNTIME: Summary packet received, domain = test, rev = 4, followers = 0, length 80, trunk Te3/2 

!--- This indicates that Switch-A has received its first summary advertisement.


*Nov 25 02:45:51.100: VTP LOG RUNTIME: Validate TLVs : #tlvs 1, max blk size 4
*Nov 25 02:45:51.100: VTP LOG RUNTIME: Validate TLVs : #00, val 6, len 4

*Nov 25 02:45:51.100: 
*Nov 25 02:45:51.108: VTP LOG RUNTIME: Transitioning from NULL to test domain 

!--- Switch-A learns the VTP domain at this stage. 

Step 5. With the debug enabled, you can see that Switch-A receives a summary advertisement with no followers. Therefore, Switch-A updates its domain name and sends advertisement requests to obtain the VLAN information, as shown in this sample output:

!--- On Switch-A

*Nov 25 02:45:51.108: VTP LOG RUNTIME: Summary packet rev 4 greater than domain test rev 0

*Nov 25 02:45:51.108: VTP LOG RUNTIME: Domain test currently not in updating state

*Nov 25 02:45:51.108: VTP LOG RUNTIME: Summary packet with followers field zero

*Nov 25 02:45:51.108: VTP LOG RUNTIME: Transmit vtp request, domain test, start value 0


!--- This is where the advertisement request is sent. 

Step 6. Switch-C sends another summary advertisement with the followers field set to 1, which indicates that one subset advertisement follows. The subset advertisement that contains all VLANs is shown in this output. Then Switch-A configures all the VLANs:

!--- On Switch-A:

*Nov 25 02:45:51.595: VTP LOG RUNTIME: Summary packet received, domain = test, rev = 4, followers = 1, length 80, trunk Te3/2

!--- Switch-A has received its second summary advertisement.
 
!--- This configuration revision is higher than that on Switch-A.
