A VLAN Trunking Protocol (VTP) domain is one switch or several interconnected switches sharing the same VLAN Trunking Protocol (VTP) environment. A switch can be configured only in one VLAN Trunking Protocol (VTP) domain. Switches in different VTP domains do not share VLAN Trunking Protocol (VTP) information.
How do I setup a VTP domain?
- a switch has to be configured as either a VTP server or VTP client.
- the VTP domain name has to be the same on both switches.
- if present, the VTP domain password has to be the same.
- VTP versions have to match.
- the link between the switches has to be a trunk link.
What is Gvrp used for?
The GVRP is an IEEE 802.1Q-compliant method for facilitating automatic (dynamic) VLAN membership configuration. GVRP-enabled switches can exchange VLAN configuration information with other GVRP-enabled switches. Policy rules or other network management methods can determine who is admitted to a VLAN.
