Private Vlans

Hi,

Since VTP does not support Private Vlans, do you need to make the primary/secondary assignment on each switch participating?

Ie. If you have hosts part of the same secondary vlan on different switches.

So for example I would have to do:

vlan <primary-vlan>
private-vlan primary
private-vlan association secondary-vlan
vlan <secondary-vlan>
private-vlan community


Will this have to be done manually on all the switches then?

I cant lab this out myself since i dont have 4000's or 6500's.. annoying.

Thanks

Yes.. any private vlan creation/association is local to that switch.

vtp only lets you create vlans and propagates them but you still need to associate the ports to the vlan for each switch.

depending on the switch model you need to put the switch in VTP transparent before you can create a private VLAN.
