Subject: Re: VTP Server and Transparent

Y. I see that for pruning. Not trying to mis lead but wanted to point out.

Even though I have pruning on I can still enter

spanning-tree vlan 1-4094 priority 0 or
spanning-tree vlan 1-4094 root primary etc....

So I still tend to agree that 'all vlans' means 1-4094 and if the switch
doesn't choke when it did when I tried to enter more than what pruning can
support, I would go for the whole range.

That is my thought on this...
