VTP Question

Hi All,

I have seen this question in some ccna practice questions and the answers being given were different. I'd like to know which is correct since both seem correct to me:

Q. For a switch with a VTP mode of 'client', what is the VTP function of this switch?

A. Learn and save VTP configuration in the running configuration

B. Forwards information about VTP configuration.

Thanks.

VTP clients synchronize their VTP/VLAN configuration from VTP servers. I think the key word for this question is "learn".

I would pick answer A.

A VTP client also forwards VTP advertisements from the other VTP switches in the same VTP domain.

VTP Transparent mode will forward traffic out all trunked links but not configure itself with the settings received.......

According to that article:

When a switch is in VTP client mode, you cannot change the VLAN configuration on the switch. The client switch receives VTP updates from a VTP server in the management domain and modifies its configuration accordingly.

I'd still sticking with answer A.
