VTP is Vertical Trading Point
transparent
A switch running in VTP Transparent mode will not participate in VLAN synchronization. With VTP version 2, it will forward VLAN traffic out its trunk interfaces.
Transparent mode
unable to add VLANS can forward VLAN information to other swithces in the same VTP domain
Client
VTP server mode and VTP transparent mode.
The VTP domain cannot be modified.
VTP transparent mode allows a switch to forward VTP advertisements but does not participate in the VTP domain. This mode is useful when you want to maintain VLAN information locally without affecting the rest of the VTP domain.
BY using the VTP domain on cisco switch to pass the VLan informetion and any changes that will be happen in vtp server the client switch will get the same informetion from its VTp server switch..
The switch has been reset. The VTP domain name has been changed.
transparent
Layer 2 multicast. vtp is stopped at the router.

For VLAN Trunking Protocol (VTP) to function correctly, all switches in the VTP domain must be configured with the same VTP domain name. Additionally, at least one switch must be set to VTP server mode to create and propagate VLAN information, while other switches can be configured as clients or transparent modes. Proper trunking must also be established on the links connecting the switches to facilitate the transmission of VTP advertisements.
A switch running in VTP Transparent mode will not participate in VLAN synchronization. With VTP version 2, it will forward VLAN traffic out its trunk interfaces.
Hi everybody the difference between VTP version 1 and version 2 are : 1- version 1 : it supports Token Ring Vlans 2- version 2 : it supports consistency checks .it means , when the new information about the VTP domain is entered through the command line or others as SNMP ,VTP version 2 will perform the consistency check . in VTP version 2 , if a switch is in transparent mode .it will forward the message without checking version information .
Three VTP parameters that must be identical on all switches to participate in the same VTP domain include domain name, domain password, and version number. VTP stands for VLAN Trunk Protocol. The answer can be found at http://www.ccna4u.org/2011/06/ccna-3-chapter-4-2011-v4-0-answers-100.html
