VTP: change from client/server to transparent

Dec 08, 2005 1 Replies

Hi,



I've inherited a network with most switches in VTP server mode. I guess people just added switches and left them in the default mode. There are only 4 VLANs on the network and they rarely need to add or delete VLANS.



So I've suggested to turn VTP to transparent mode across all the switches.



I have a quick question about this.



When I change these switches from VTP server and client to transparent. They will not delete any currently existing VLANS correct ?



In other words doing this will have no impact on production ?



(Although I am, of course doing this out of hours :-)



Thanks

FYI. I performed the change and the answer is that no vlans will be withdrawn if you change from VTP server / client to transparent mode.
