Configuration Examples for VTP

Configuring VTP

Example: Configuring the Switch as a VTP Server

This example shows how to configure the switch as a VTP server with the domain name eng_group and the password mypassword:

Switch(config)# vtp domain eng_group

Setting VTP domain name to eng_group.

Switch(config)# vtp mode server

Setting device to VTP Server mode for VLANS.

Switch(config)# vtp password mypassword

Setting device VLAN database password to mypassword.

Switch(config)# end

Example: Configuring a Hidden Password

This example shows how to configure a hidden password and how it appears.

Switch(config)# vtp password mypassword hidden

Generating the secret associated to the password.

Switch(config)# end

Switch# show vtp password

VTP password: 89914640C8D90868B6A0D8103847A733

Example: Configuring a VTP Version 3 Primary Server

This example shows how to configure a switch as the primary server for the VLAN database (the default) when a hidden or secret password was configured:

Switch# vtp primary vlan

Enter VTP password: mypassword

This switch is becoming Primary server for vlan feature in the VTP domain VTP Database Conf Switch ID Primary Server Revision System Name
