Presently we run end to end vlans w/LANE. We are going to the gigabit
ethernet design with end to end vlans. We plan for a slow migration to local
vlans. Once the migration to local vlans is complete then a server/client
model might be more efficient. Talking to another network professional,
transparent mode seemed to be the only way during the transition period to
local vlans. I really prefer transperent over the server/client model. But I
don't want my ill advised emotions not to give the other side a fair chance.

Like most networking problems it depends. How large is your switch domain?
Are you doing End to End VLANs or Local? How large is your STP domain now?
Will it grow larger? Here a link I would start with
http://www.cisco.com/warp/customer/473/21.html ( stater for VTP)
then hit this one
http://www.cisco.com/warp/public/cc/so/neso/lnso/cpso/gcnd_wp.htm (covers
GigE Design)
Design solutions are usually need and resource driven...as for standards
they change(some daily). JMHO

Network is migrating from ATM to Gigabit Ethernet. Transparent mode was
default VTP for all distribution layer switches. We had hubs for all
access
layer switches. With the new migration to Gigabit switches would be at all
access layer buildings. Would it be beneficial to run transparent abroad
or
a server/client model.
Thanks
