Which one of the following protocols distributes information about the configuration of a new VLAN to the entire switched network?
  1. STP
  2. EIGRP
  3. RIPv2
  4. VTP
Explanation
Answer: D - VTP distributes information about the configuration of a new VLAN to the switched network.

Key Takeaway: VTP is a Cisco proprietary Layer 2 messaging protocol that manages the addition, deletion, and renaming of VLANs on a network. It reduces administration in a switched network. When a new VLAN is configured on one VTP server, the VLAN is distributed through all switches in the domain. This reduces the need to configure the same VLAN everywhere. VTP carries VLAN information to all the switches in a VTP domain.
