Question about network vlan propogation

nygenxny123 · ‎11-16-2008

I am currently configuring some embedded 3120 switches (hp blad)

I am setting up trunks between this switch

and the core switches. I am however

seeing vlans already propogated within the switch...and yet nothing was configured yet..except for assigning

on vlan (112) on all the switch ports.

There is already trunking too.

How can this switch see other vlans?

This there is no VTP either

B1.#sh vlan summary

Number of existing VLANs : 9

Number of existing VTP VLANs : 9

Number of existing extended VLANs : 0

B1#sh vlan

VLAN Name Status Ports

116 Pod_C_OpenNet active

120 Pod_D_OpenNet active

1003 token-ring-default act/unsup

(I edited the ports out for brevity)

Have you got VTP configured on your core switches and if so what mode ie. server/client/transparent and do you have a VTP password set.

hi jon-

no we do not have vtp configured in our network

the vtp mode of the switch is at the default

of server

glen.grant · ‎11-16-2008

Because one is setup as server then the other switches are probably set as server or client and thus recieved any vlans that were configured on the vtp server switches.

probably it has something to do with DTP if the core switch's interface is configured as a trunk, then the switch is in desirable mode by default so that makes the trunking works.

Hi,

Could you please post the (Sh vtp status) from the Switchs?

This should only happens if you have VTP configured as Server/client or Server/Server.
