Which three statements about VTP features are true? (Choose three.)

The correct answer is B. When properly configured, VTP minimizes VLAN misconfigurations and configuration inconsistencies. E. VTP pruning is used to increase available bandwidth in trunk links. G. Client, server, and transparent are valid VTP modes.. B is correct: VTP propagates VLAN database changes from the VTP server to all clients in the domain, preventing misconfigurations and inconsistencies. E is correct: VTP pruning stops unnecessary flooded traffic (broadcasts, multicasts, unknown unicasts) from being sent over trunk

Question

Which three statements about VTP features are true? (Choose three.)

Options

  • AVTP works at Layer 3 of the OSI model and requires that a management VLAN IP address be configured.
  • BWhen properly configured, VTP minimizes VLAN misconfigurations and configuration inconsistencies.
  • CWhen properly configured, VTP maintains VLAN configuration consistency and accelerates trunk link negotiation.
  • DEach broadcast domain on a switch can have its own unique VTP domain.
  • EVTP pruning is used to increase available bandwidth in trunk links.
  • FTo configure a switch to be part of two VTP domains, each domain must have its own passwords.
  • GClient, server, and transparent are valid VTP modes.

Explanation

B is correct: VTP propagates VLAN database changes from the VTP server to all clients in the domain, preventing misconfigurations and inconsistencies. E is correct: VTP pruning stops unnecessary flooded traffic (broadcasts, multicasts, unknown unicasts) from being sent over trunk links to switches that have no ports in that VLAN, freeing up bandwidth. G is correct: the three valid VTP modes are server (can create/modify/delete VLANs), client (receives updates, cannot modify), and transparent (forwards VTP messages but maintains its own local VLAN database). A is incorrect: VTP operates at Layer 2, not Layer 3-no IP address is required. C is incorrect: trunk link negotiation is handled by DTP (Dynamic Trunking Protocol), not VTP. D is incorrect: a switch belongs to only one VTP domain at a time. F is incorrect: a switch cannot simultaneously belong to two VTP domains.
