Beginning in privileged EXEC mode, follow these steps to configure the network
shown in Figure 8-5:
Purpose
On Switch 1, enter VLAN configuration mode.
Configure a VTP administrative domain.
The domain name can be from 1 to 32 characters.
Configure Switch 1 as the VTP server.
Return to privileged EXEC mode.
Verify the VTP configuration on both Switch 1 and
Switch 2.
In the display, check the VTP Operating Mode and the VTP
Domain Name fields.
Verify that the VLANs exist in the database on Switch 1.
Enter global configuration mode.
Enter interface configuration mode, and define Fa0/1 as the
interface to be configured as a trunk.
Configure the port as a trunk port.
The trunk defaults to ISL trunking.
Return to privileged EXEC mode.
Verify the VLAN configuration.
Repeat Steps 7 through 11 on Switch 1 for interface Fa0/2.
Repeat Steps 7 through 11 on Switch 2 to configure the
trunk ports on interface Fa0/1 and Fa0/2.
When the trunk links come up, VTP passes the VTP and
VLAN information to Switch 2. Verify the Switch 2 has
learned the VLAN configuration.
Enter global configuration mode on Switch 1.
