Sean, I need also the output of your SW2.
Do you also can paste sh vtp status of both?

        Plukkie,

        Switch 1 would add those vlan into requested list even you do
not have any host. this happen because you have an active trunk port
between SW1 and SW2 which cause the SVI to up/up. see the output below..
vlan 5,7,46 have been pruned on SW1 due to lack of request from SW2
while vlan 1,5,7,28,46,100 have been added into the SW1 requested list.

        As a result Switch 2 can not prune those vlan 1,5,7,28,46,100
which requested by SW1 and have to add those vlan into allow list..

        same rules apply to the other switch..

        pls correct me if am wrong.. thanks

        Sean,

        This is solution three from David:

        Soltution3:
        allows vlan traffic to other side that the OTHER side
        has hosts in as well as all interface vlans on the other side.

        The first part, correct, but what's the use to allow interface
vlans from the other side, while you don't have hosts in that vlan or
neither yourself an interface in that vlan?

                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
