We have a 6509 wich has severall stacks of 3524XL switches attached to it. We have set the 6509 as vtp server and the other switches as clients. The problem is that one switch wich setup as vtp client keeps on appearing on all the switches (even the vtp server ) as the last updater.

see vtp info below:

this is the 6509 with ip: 10.0.0.101
Code:
Domain Name                      Domain Index VTP Version Local Mode  Password
-------------------------------- ------------ ----------- ----------- ----------
domain1                           1            2           server      -

Vlan-count Max-vlan-storage Config Revision Notifications
---------- ---------------- --------------- -------------
5          1023             2               enabled

Last Updater    V2 Mode  Pruning  PruneEligible on Vlans
--------------- -------- -------- -------------------------
10.0.0.1        disabled enabled  2-1000

This is the vtp client with ip-address 10.0.0.1
Code:
VTP Version                     : 2
Configuration Revision          : 2
Maximum VLANs supported locally : 254
Number of existing VLANs        : 5
VTP Operating Mode              : Client
VTP Domain Name                 : domain1
VTP Pruning Mode                : Enabled
VTP V2 Mode                     : Disabled
VTP Traps Generation            : Enabled
MD5 digest                      : 0x19 0xC1 0x0E 0x37 0x32 0x8C 0xEC 0xBD
Configuration last modified by 10.0.0.1 at  ^@^@:^@^@:^@^@

I tried the following set the revision number on the client to 0 by changing the vtp domain to something else and back.

I have to add that there is only vlan 1 there but I do not think that should make any difference for the vtp to work. (we have it working on more sites)

My question is: how and why does this happen?.. COuld someone give me a way to set it right again?

Thanks...

Have you tried to enable the VTP V2 on your client?

IPKONFIG,

No I have not tried that. The reason is that the setup without v2 enabled works on other sites we have. I could try to enable it and set it back and see what happens...

Will post the result tomorrow....
