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.

What is the function of a VTP server?

In very simple language. Cisco switches can be configured in VTP Server, transparent or client mode. VTP server is the default mode in most everyday switches. The switch must be in server mode in order to create,add, delete VLAN's in the same domain. If I am using more than one switch, the one with the lowest MAC address is the one I would use to be my STP. The other switch would be in CLIENT mode (my preference).


What precaution must you take when redeploying a switch to a new VTP domain in the network?

You must first delete all of its configuration. Higher revision number, for example, on a switch can result in a disaster when re-deployed in a VTP network. However, if all of the switch on the VTP network is set to transparent mode, there should be no problem.


What are two of the requirements for vtp to function correctly?

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.

What is the default vtp mode on a catalyst switch?

TransparentTransparent is a bit iffy..? By default, a Catalyst switch is in the no-management-domain state until it receives an advertisement for a domain over a trunk link or until you configure a management domain. However, the default mode is Server mode.
