VTP V2 question

I have 2950 switch and a fresh reload. I do the following

S2#show vtp status
VTP Version : 2
Configuration Revision : 0
Maximum VLANs supported locally : 128
Number of existing VLANs : 5
VTP Operating Mode : Server
VTP Domain Name : home
VTP Pruning Mode : Disabled
VTP V2 Mode : Disabled

Now the question is since VTP version says it is running 2 why does
VTP V2 Mode say disable?

THanks for any help.

VTP Version : 2 means it's capable of vtp v2.

Mode Disabled means it's currently running v1.

Exactly what he said.

By default, switches use V1....so you have to enable version 2.

That definitely was in the CCNA materials

. But +2 for the reasoning above. Enable using vtp version 2 command. Then when you check VTP status you should see

VTP Version : 2
Configuration Revision : 1
Maximum VLANs supported locally : 255
Number of existing VLANs : 5
VTP Operating Mode : Server
VTP Domain Name :
VTP Pruning Mode : Disabled
VTP V2 Mode : Enabled
VTP Traps Generation : Disabled
