Hi all,
I have been wanting to mock this up in the lab for a while to figure it out, but haven't made the time. I got to thinking and decided that perhaps this group could answer the question for me. Lets say you have several switches with trunk links between them. All switches are in the same VTP domain, with same VTP password. One switch is in VTP Server mode. All other switches are in Client mode. We enable VTP pruning on the server. All clients learn to prune - so all the switches have pruning enabled. Then we take all of the switches and set them to transparent mode. At this point, all switches are in transparent and still show VTP Pruning as enabled. Would pruning actually still work or would setting the switches to transparent mode effectively defeat pruning? TIA, Brian
