Robert,

        Are there any passwords defined for the domain? Are you using the same
trunking protocol at both ends (not sure if either supports ISL anymore).
Is the version number higher on the 3550? Otherwise, the client will ignore
it, I believe.

Subject: VTP updates are received but ignored?

Hi All,

I have 2 switches a 3550 and a 2950 that is trunked & ether-channeled
accross fa0/23 and fa0/24.

The 3550 is the server and the 2950 is the slave. The vtp domain names are
identical.

If I run 'show vtp counter', it shows that the client is receiving updates.
However, the VLANs that I add to the server is not getting sent accross to
the client.

I have manamagent addresses on both switches in VLAN 1.

I have probably done this 50 times in production environments with no
problems previously, and now I can't get it to work in a lab?

The 'show vtp counter' indicates there are some errors:

2950#sh vtp count

Any ideas as to what I may be missing?

Thanks,

Robert
