Everytime I read about VTP I wonder
"Why use VTP Transparent"?
It seems like having servers and clients is enough if you plan on using VTP in your network.
What is the purpose of having VTP transparent mode?
Why does VTP transparent mode allow creation, deletion, and configuring of VTP information but not propogate this information? Something doesn't add up.
Also, I read VTP transparent supports extendeds VLANs but the other modes don't.
I don't understand the purpose of VTP transparent mode other then forwarding VTP advertisements without keeping information for that domain.
