Re: VTP transparent mode md5 gets changed

WAY TOO MANY WORDS!

Bottom line is, SW1 is believed to NOT be passing on the updates.

Karthik,

I have seen where , if the Tranparent switch is the hub and it does NOT have
the vlans configured that are being passed in the update, Then it WILL NOT
pass on that info to the clients or to other servers.

I would check these things off the bat.

1) The domain ID matches on all the switches?
Does the Transparent switch have the correct Domain-ID since it will not
learn it.
2) Is the update count higher on the clients than the version that is being
propagated?

Let's start there.
