Lab 5.1.3 Troubleshooting VTP (Troubleshooting LAN Switches) Fa 2/3 Fa 0/12 Fa 0/1 Trunk 802.1q Crossover Connection ALSwitch 2900XL-Ent 4006 L3 VLAN 10 Client Objective VLAN Trunk Protocol (VTP) reduces administration in switched networks. When you configure a new VLAN on one VTP server, the VLAN is distributed through all switches in the domain. This reduces the need of configuring the same VLAN everywhere. VTP is a Cisco-proprietary protocol that is available on most of the Cisco Catalyst Family products. In this lab you will troubleshoot some basic VLAN trunking problems with VTP (VLAN Trunking Protocol). Scenario This is not part of the International Travel Agency network. As the Enterprise Network Administrator, you have a large switched network that is all in the same VTP domain. Your network administrator added a new 2900XL-Enterprise switch to the network. The first connected client to the new switch is from the Accounting Department (VLAN 10). He indicates immediately that he is not able to reach any network resources. The administrator indicated that he did issue the command “switchport access vlan 10” on FastEthernet port 0/1, which is the port the Accounting member is connected to, and also verified that both the links (FastEthernet 0/1 and FastEthernet 0/12) indicate a green connection light on the 2900. FastEthernet 0/12 is designated as the up- link trunking port. Lab Tasks Cable the lab as shown in the diagram.
