Correct answer is a, you can only create, add, delete edit vlan in server and transparent mode, you won’t be able to create, delete vlan in client mode.

yes but you can create VLANS with VTP totally disabled. It's a trick question

VTP can't be totally disabled it's Server by default. You can tap show vtp status

Also B is uncorrect. Because when vtp mode is transparent, you can create extended vlan. Switch(config)#vtp mode transparent Setting device to VTP TRANSPARENT mode. Switch(config)#vlan 1010 Switch(config-vlan)#

Right, statement A precedes B. A comes first before you can even configure an extended VLAN. A is correct.

Answer A is correct "The switch must be in VTP server or transparent mode before you can configure a VLAN". The VTP default status is set to server. If you add another switch to your network, you need to change its VTP mode to client. Otherwise it may kill your VLAN configuration within the whole network!

When VTP transparent is enabled configured vlan will be saved only on the running config. A is incorrect coz you can configure VLAN even if VTP is disabled

A. The switch must be in VTP server or transparent mode before you can configure a VLAN. This statement is true because in VTP (VLAN Trunking Protocol) server or transparent mode, you can create, modify and delete VLANs. In server mode, changes are sent to other switches in the VTP network. In transparent mode, the switch does not send or process VTP advertisements, but can still create and modify VLANs, which will only affect the local switch. The correct answer is A.

switch# show vtp status VTP Operating Mode : Server Maximum VLANs supported locally : 255 Number of existing VLANs : 5 Configuration Revision : 0 From this switch is VTP mode server by default, so creating VLAN before changing VTP mode transparent and doing it after creating VLAN is the same. So A is I think not 100% correct

After researches i figured out that true statement is C A. VLAN configuration can be done regardless of whether the switch is in VTP server or transparent mode. incorrect B. There is no specific "config-vlan" mode in VLAN configuration. VLANs are typically created and configured in global configuration mode on a switch. incorrect C. dynamic inter-vlan routing, often achieved through the use of a Layer 3 device like a router or a L3 switch, enables communication between VLANs without the need for static routing. This statement indicates that VLANs 2 through 4064 can communicate with each other using dynamic routing protocols, enhancing the flexibility and efficiency of inter-VLAN communication, and making it easier for devices in different VLANs to exchange data efficiently. correct D. Transparent mode, does not save the VLAN databases to the running configuration only, it does save VLAN information to both the running configuration and the startup configuration. incorrect

Selected Answer: B
A - As mentioned you dont have to use VTP to config VLANs B - Extended-Range VLANs:[1006 - 4094] When the switch is in VTP transparent mode, you can create extended-range VLANs using the vlan vlan-id global configuration command. Access the config-vlan mode to configure extended-range VLANs C - Dynamic inter-VLAN routing does not depend on specific VLAN IDs. Instead, it operates based on the routing protocols and Layer 3 interfaces configured within the network D - VTP transparent switches store their VLAN configuration in the startup configuration file, ensuring persistence across reboots, but they do not actively participate in VTP updates or maintain a separate vlan.dat file.

C. Dynamic inter-VLAN routing is supported on VLAN2 through VLAN 4064. This statement indicates that dynamic inter-VLAN routing (often done with a router or Layer 3 switch) typically supports VLANs numbered from 2 to 4064. VLANs outside of this range may not be supported by all devices. This range of VLAN IDs is common in networking and is consistent with industry standards.

Option A is a correct statement because the question doesn't ask anything about VLAN advertisement or VLAN information forwarding, so we shouldn't think deeper about VTP modes.
