What are two benefits of using VTP in a switching environment? (Choose two.)

The correct answer is C. It maintains VLAN consistency across a switched network. E. It allows VLAN information to be automatically propagated throughout the switching environment.. VLAN Trunk Protocol (VTP) reduces administration in a switched network. When you configure a new VLAN on one VTP server, the VLAN is distributed through all switches in the domain. This reduces the need to configure the same VLAN everywhere.
