you have to pay attention to the CAT you are deleting the vlan from....if it
is in transparent mode, then the vlan, like the book says will be deleted
from the CAT only.... if it is in client mode, then no changes can be made
VLAN wise on the switch. If it is the vtp server, then removing VLAN 5 will
delete VLAN 5 from that CAT and all the other CAT's in the vtp domain...
Read the quoted text you placed in your email to us....It describes the
process as well as anybody could describe it. Are you havign problems
following/determining what a switch is? (Server, client, transparent)

Hi,Dave,
First, thank you for your answer.
But I really got confused. Pls read the following excerpt
about Deleting VLAN from the book of Cisco LAN Switching
written by Clark & Hamilton :
You can remove VLANs from the management domain using the clear vlan
vlan_number
command. For example, if you want to remove VLAN 5 from your VTP management
domain, you can type the command clear vlan 5 on a Catalyst configured as a
VTP server.
You cannot delete VLANs from a VTP client Catalyst. If the Catalyst is
configured in
transparent mode, you can delete the VLAN. However, the VLAN is removed only
from the
one Catalyst and is not deleted throughout the management domain. All VLAN
creations
and deletions are only locally significant on a transparent Catalyst.
So, according the above words, it just remove the portion of vlan 5 on that
Catalyst
which clear command was executed. Is it right?
>From Woody's answer to my last question :
Vlan 5 will also be cleared on all switches that are configured as
clients as well. Also, any port that is configured on those switches
will also lose their vlan assignment to vlan 5.
I raised another question: if Woody is right, the portion of vlan 5 on the
Catalysts
configured as clients will also be removed, then my question is: Will all
clients
or just clients configured from that server-Catalyst which clear command is
executed
be removed?
Sorry for taking you long time to read my questions.
Any suggestion would be welcome.
