VTP（虚拟局域网中继协议）：是思科的私有协议，通过VTP协议，可以实现交换机之间互相传递消息，从而实现VLAN的同步和统一管理。
VTP示例：
R3:
R3(config)#int f1/1 #trunk模式
R3(config-if)#switchport mode trunk
R3(config)#vtp domain cisco #所有启用VTP的交换机域名一致
R3(config)#vtp password cisco #VTP密码一致
R3(config)#vtp mode server #VTP域至少有一台处于服务器模式，以便于
R3(config)#vtp pruning 创建、修改、删除VLAN
Pruning switched on
R3(config)#vlan 10 #新建VLAN
R3(config-vlan)#name vlan10
R3(config-vlan)#vlan 20
R3(config-vlan)#name vlan20
R3(config)#int vlan 1 #管理IP
R3(config-if)#ip add 172.16.1.1 255.255.255.0
R3(config-if)#no sh
R3#sh vlan-switch #查看VLAN
