Transparent

Transparent
VTP transparent switches do not participate in the VTP domain, but they still receive and
forward VTP advertisements through the configured trunk links. However, for a transparent
switch to advertise the VLAN information out the configured trunk links, VTP version 2 must
be used. If not, the switch does not forward anything. VTP transparent switches can add and
delete VLANs because they keep their own database and do not share it with other switches.
Transparent switches are considered locally significant.
