Objectives
In this activity, you will configure VTP and DTP.
Background / Scenario
Scalability and management are two crucial considerations in large networks. VTP and DTP are technologies that improve management and scalability. VLAN Trunking Protocol (VTP) allows the switches to communicate over VLANs automatically, improving management and scalability. Dynamic Trunking Protocol (DTP) allows the switches to automatically negotiate and establish trunk links. DTP also improves scalability.
In this activity, you will configure a switched environment where trunks are negotiated and formed via DTP, and VLAN information is propagated automatically through a VTP domain.
