How to Configure VLAN, STP, DTP

In this tutorial I will demonstrate that how can you

Configure Access or Trunk links
Create VLAN
Assign VLAN membership
Configure Intra VLAN routing
Configure VTP Server
Make VTP Clients
Show STP Static
Configure DTP port

To complete these lab either create a topology as shown in figure or download this file and load it in packet tracer

Task

You are the administrator at ComputerNetworkingNotes.com. company have two department sales and management. You have given three pc for sales and three pc in management. You created two VLAN. VLAN 10 for sales and VLAN20 for management. For backup purpose you have interconnected switch with one extra connection. You have one router for intera VLAN communications.
Let's start configuration first assign IP address to all pc's
To assign IP address double click on pc and select ip configurations from desktop tab and give ip address as shown in table given above

VLAN Trunking Protocol

Configure VTP Server

We will first create a VTP Server so it can automatically propagate VLAN information to other switch. Double click on Switch1 and select CLI. Set hostname to S1 and create VTP domain name example and set password to vinita ( Remember password is case sensitive ).
Switch 1

Switch>enable
Switch#configure terminal
Enter configuration commands, one per line.  End with CNTL/Z.
Switch(config)#hostname S1
S1(config)#vtp mode server
Device mode already VTP SERVER.
S1(config)#vtp domain example
Changing VTP domain name from NULL to example
S1(config)#vtp password vinita
Setting device VLAN database password to vinita

Configure VTP clients

Once you have created a VTP domain. Configure remaining Switch to Client mode.
Switch 2

Switch>enable
Switch#configure terminal
Enter configuration commands, one per line.  End with CNTL/Z.
Switch(config)#hostname S2
S2(config)#vtp mode client
Setting device to VTP CLIENT mode.
S2(config)#vtp domain example
Changing VTP domain name from NULL to example
S2(config)#vtp password vinita
Setting device VLAN database password to vinita
S2(config)#

Switch 3

Switch>enable
Switch#configure terminal
Enter configuration commands, one per line.  End with CNTL/Z.
Switch(config)#hostname S3
S3(config)#vtp mode client
Setting device to VTP CLIENT mode.
S3(config)#vtp domain example
Changing VTP domain name from NULL to example
S3(config)#vtp password vinita
Setting device VLAN database password to vinita
S3(config)#

Dynamic Trunking Protocol

Configure DTP port

All Switch ports remain by default in access mode. Access port can not transfer the trunk frame. Change mode to trunk on all the port those are used to interconnect the switches
Switch 1

S1(config)#interface fastEthernet 0/24
S1(config-if)#switchport mode trunk
%LINEPROTO-5-UPDOWN: Line protocol on Interface FastEthernet0/24,
changed state to down
%LINEPROTO-5-UPDOWN: Line protocol on Interface FastEthernet0/24,
changed state to up
S1(config-if)#exit
S1(config)#interface gigabitEthernet 1/1
S1(config-if)#switchport mode trunk
S1(config-if)#exit
S1(config)#interface gigabitEthernet 1/2
S1(config-if)#switchport mode trunk
%LINEPROTO-5-UPDOWN: Line protocol on Interface GigabitEthernet1/2,
changed state to down
%LINEPROTO-5-UPDOWN: Line protocol on Interface GigabitEthernet1/2,
changed state to up
S1(config-if)#exit
S1(config)#

Switch 2

S2(config)#interface gigabitEthernet 1/1
S2(config-if)#switchport mode trunk
%LINEPROTO-5-UPDOWN: Line protocol on Interface GigabitEthernet1/1,
changed state to down
%LINEPROTO-5-UPDOWN: Line protocol on Interface GigabitEthernet1/1,
changed state to up
S2(config-if)#exit
S2(config)#interface gigabitEthernet 1/2
S2(config-if)#switchport mode trunk
S2(config-if)#exit
S2(config)#interface fastEthernet 0/23
S2(config-if)#switchport mode trunk
%LINEPROTO-5-UPDOWN: Line protocol on Interface FastEthernet0/23,
changed state to down
%LINEPROTO-5-UPDOWN: Line protocol on Interface FastEthernet0/23,
changed state to up
S2(config-if)#exit
S2(config)#interface fastEthernet 0/24
S2(config-if)#switchport mode trunk
S2(config-if)#exit

Switch 3

S3(config)#interface fastEthernet 0/24
S3(config-if)#switchport mode trunk
S3(config-if)#exit
S3(config)#interface gigabitEthernet 1/1
S3(config-if)#switchport mode trunk
S3(config-if)#exit

Virtual LAN (VLAN)

Create VLAN

After VTP server configuration its time to organize VLAN. We need only to create VLAN on VTP server and reset will be done by VTP Server automatically.
Switch 1

S1(config)#vlan 10
S1(config-vlan)#exit
S1(config)#vlan 20
S1(config-vlan)#exit
S1(config)#

As we have already configure VTP server in our network so we don't need to create VLAN on S2 or S3. We need only to associate VLAN with port.

Assign VLAN membership

Switch 1

S1(config)#interface fastEthernet 0/1
S1(config-if)#switchport access vlan 10
S1(config-if)#interface fastEthernet 0/2
S1(config-if)#switchport access vlan 20

Switch 2

S2(config)#interface fastEthernet 0/1
S2(config-if)#switchport access vlan 10
S2(config-if)#interface fastEthernet 0/2
S2(config-if)#switchport access vlan 20

Switch 3

S3(config)#interface fastEthernet 0/1
S3(config-if)#switchport access vlan 10
S3(config-if)#interface fastEthernet 0/2
S3(config-if)#switchport access vlan 20

Now we have two working vlan. To test connectivity do ping form 10.0.0.2 to 10.0.0.3 and 10.0.0.4. if you get successfully replay then you have successfully created VLAN and VTP server.

Spanning-Tree Protocol

In this configuration STP will block these ports F0/24 of S1 , F0/23 and F0/24 of S2 and F0/24 of S3 to avoid loop at layer to two. Verify those ports blocked due to STP functions

Verify STP ports

Switch 2

You can test STP protocols status on S1 and S3 also with
show spanning-tree active command

Router on Stick

Switch#show interfaces vlan x	Displays interface characteristics for the specified VLAN
Switch#delete flash:vlan.dat Delete filename [vlan.dat]? Delete flash:vlan.dat? [confirm] Switch#	Removes the entire VLAN database from flash. Make sure there is no space between the colon (:) and the characters vlan.dat. You can potentially erase the entire contents of the flash with this command if the syntax is not correct. Make sure you read the output from the switch. If you need to cancel, press ctrl+c to escape back to privileged mode:
Switch(config)#interface fastethernet 0/5	Moves to interface configuration mode.
Switch(config-if)#no switchport access vlan 5	Removes port from VLAN 5 and reassigns it to VLAN 1—the default VLAN.
Switch(config-if)#exit	Moves to global configuration mode.
Switch(config)#no vlan 5	Removes VLAN 5 from the VLAN database.
Switch#copy running-config startupconfig	Saves the configuration in NVRAM
Switch(config-if) #switchport mode trunk	Puts the interface into permanent trunking mode and negotiates to convert the link into a trunk link.
Switch(config)#vtp mode server	Changes the switch to VTP server mode.
Switch(config)#vtp mode client	Changes the switch to VTP client mode.
Switch(config)#vtp mode transparent	Changes the switch to VTP transparent mode.
Switch(config)#no vtp mode	Returns the switch to the default VTP server mode.
Switch(config)#vtp domain domain-name	Configures the VTP domain name. The name can be from 1 to 32 characters long.
Switch(config)#vtp password password	Configures a VTP password .
Switch(config)#vtp pruning	Enables VTP pruning
Switch#show vtp status	Displays general information about VTP configuration
