Hello people from the list.

I recently came across an issue on a Practice Lab that
had the following:

The initial config of two Switches had them as VTP
Servers. Each with some vlans created locally.

Then later on, it was requested that one of the
switches be a VTP Client. When I changed the mode to
"Client" it lost the few vlans that it initially had
and learned the vlans advertised by the Server.

My question is: Is there a way in an scenario like
this to preserve the vlans after you change the mode
to client? Is there a "vlan database" or "config mode"
workaround for this?

The only way I was able to keep the vlans was by
setting the switch back to Server, let it replicate
its local vlans to the other one (future only VTP
Server) and then change the switch back to Client. 

Pretty much this will cause the client to learn the
vlans that it originally had locally configured from
its Server.

Did I do that right? Is there another way to do this?

THX in advance!
