Only one. If both C6500 are in server mode they will synchronize and save the VTP data. You can check the status like this: Core1#sh vtp status VTP Version : 3 (capable) Configuration Revision : 199 Maximum VLANs supported locally : 1005 Number of existing VLANs : 55 VTP Operating Mode : Server [...] If the configuration revision on both servers is the same, they are in sync. It doesn't matter on which you add the new VLAN. > If VTP server (6500-A) is broken down for any reason, does 6500-B still > know the vlan added before only on 6500-B and continue to propagate to > clients ? Yes, it will. A popular way to shoot yourself in the foot is to bring a new system into your VTP domain that has been used before and has got: * VTP server mode enabled * VTP data with a revision higher than your exisiting equipment Plug in for instant fun :-) Been there, ...
