I think the solution 3 is the correct solution if you want to emulate
vtp pruning.

Pruning will allow traffic on the trunk side only on couple of occasions
.

1) VLAN should locally assigned or
2) Switch should act as a transit for those vlan .

Second condition is does not apply in CCIE LAB environment . In a two
switch environment there is not question about switch to act as a pure
transit .

Ideal solution would be ... On SW1 allow all vlan that assigned locally
on
SW2 ( including VLAN 1...the default Vlan ) and vice versa .

Thanks and Regards
Arun
