You only need pruning enabled on the vtp server, so in their solution I
imagine sw1 is the server the others are clients.

Subject: VTP Pruning

Hello,

I have a query regarding VTP pruning.

    ____________________________ SW2
   |
   |
SW1--------------------------------------------- SW3
   |
   |____________________________ SW4

SW1 has trunk links to SW2, SW3 and SW4. We want the switches to prune
vlans
for which they do not have any ports assigned and the requirement tells
us to
do it in minimum number of commands (IE lab 2)

I had enabled VTP pruning on all 4 switches but when I checked the
solution in
the workbook, they have enabled pruning just on SW1. My understanding
was that
if a switch does not use a vlan, it sends the prune message and hence it
should be configured on all 4 switched.

Any inputs regarding this would be greatly appreciated.

Regards,
Ajay Prakash
