        The VTP domain just determines how the administration of VLANs
is handled, it does not determine the broadcast domain. Assuming that
between these switches in different VTP domains you have trunks that
carry common VLANs then yes they will be in the same STP domain. If you
wanted to terminate the STP domain then you could enable layer 3 routing
on the link between the switches instead of running it as a switchport.

Is Spanning-Treel protocol limited to a VTP domain?

I have two different VTP domains trunked together. There are some VLAN
numbers same on both the side. Now is it possible that Spanning-Tree
selection will cross the VTP domains?

Thanks!
