Dear All,
I am facing a scenario where one of my catalyst 2960 switch has become a root bridge of all the vlans in the network environment. Secondly this particular switch is in transparent mode right now. Apart from that i have two other core switches which i have made Root primary and root secondary for all the vlans. My concern is that should i be worried about this 2960 switch which has been a root bridge of all the vlans or the transparent mode would be enough to manage this switch not to become a problem of vlan overalpping.
Regards,
Talha

Correct. That should not be an issue since the switch is in transparent mode.
Good Luck!

Hi,
As long as you are not running vtp or the mode is transparent, you should not see any vtp vlan issues.
As for 2960 being the root, you may want to figure out what caused it and make the core switches the root and backup root.
