Elliot,

        No you do not use the interface level command "switchport trunk
allowed". This feature is used to manually edit the VLANs that can go
across the interface. Once VTP pruning is enabled everything is
automatic. Issue the "show interface [interface] pruning" command to
see what VLANs have been pruned. This can also be seen from the "show
interface trunk" output in the very last field on the bottom.

HTH,
