Explanation:
The role of the VLAN Trunking Protocol (VTP) is to maintain VLAN configuration consistency
across the entire network. VTP is a messaging protocol that uses Layer 2 trunk frames to

manage the addition, deletion, and renaming of VLANs on a network-wide basis from a
centralized switch that is in the VTP server mode. VTP is responsible for synchronizing
VLAN information within a VTP domain. This reduces the need to configure the same VLAN
information on each switch.
Using VTP, each Catalyst Family Switch advertises the following on its trunk ports:
Management domain
Configuration revision number
Known VLANs and their specific parameters
