Examples This example shows how to place the switch in VTP transparent mode:
Switch(vlan)# vtp transparent
Setting device to VTP TRANSPARENT mode.
This example shows how to set the administrative domain for the switch:
Switch(vlan)# vtp domain OurDomainName
Changing VTP domain name from cisco to OurDomainName
This example shows how to configure the VTP domain password:
Switch(vlan)# vtp password private
Setting device VLAN database password to private.
This example shows how to enable pruning in the proposed new VLAN database:
Switch(vlan)# vtp pruning
Pruning switched ON
This example shows how to enable v2 mode in the proposed new VLAN database:
Switch(vlan)# vtp v2-mode
V2 mode enabled.
You can verify your settings by entering the show vtp status privileged EXEC command.

Domain names are case sensitive.
After you configure a domain name, it cannot be removed. You can reassign it only to a different
domain.
Passwords are case sensitive. Passwords should match on all switches in the same domain.
When the no vtp password form of the command is used, the switch returns to the no-password
state.
If you enable pruning on the VTP server, it is enabled for the entire management domain.
Only VLANs included in the pruning-eligible list can be pruned.
Pruning is supported with VTP Version 1 and Version 2.
Toggling the version (v2-mode) state modifies certain parameters of certain default VLANs.
Each VTP switch automatically detects the capabilities of all the other VTP devices. To use VTP
Version 2, all VTP switches in the network must support Version 2; otherwise, you must configure
them to operate in VTP Version 1 (no vtp v2-mode).
If all switches in a domain are VTP Version 2-capable, you need only to enable VTP Version 2 on
one switch; the version number is then propagated to the other Version-2 capable switches in the
VTP domain.
If you are using VTP in a Token Ring environment or configuring a Token Ring bridge relay function
(TrBRF) or Token Ring concentrator relay function (TrCRF) VLAN media type, VTP Version 2
(v2-mode) must be enabled.
If you are configuring a Token Ring or Token Ring-NET VLAN media type, you must use VTP
Version 1.
