Monitoring VTP

This section describes commands used to display and monitor the VTP configuration.

You monitor VTP by displaying VTP configuration information: the domain name, the current VTP revision, and the number of VLANs. You can also display statistics about the advertisements sent and received by the switch.

Table 6: VTP Monitoring Commands

 

Command

Purpose

show vtp counters

Displays counters about VTP messages that have been

 

sent and received.

show vtp devices [conflict]

Displays information about all VTP version 3 devices in

 

the domain. Conflicts are VTP version 3 devices with

 

conflicting primary servers. The show vtp devices

 

command does not display information when the switch

 

is in transparent or off mode.

show vtp interface [interface-id]

Displays VTP status and configuration for all interfaces

 

or the specified interface.

show vtp password

Displays the VTP password. The form of the password

 

displayed depends on whether or not the hidden keyword

 

was entered and if encryption is enabled on the switch.

show vtp status

Displays the VTP switch configuration information.
