QUESTION: What You Need to Do To Avoid Being Fired - Revision Number - Job Saving Info You Must Know BACKGROUND A switch [X], VTP server or client, with the highest VTP configuration revision number will dictate ALL other switches, using its VLAN configuration inside the same VTP domain. SO, the highest VTP configuration revision number will be KING. SITUATION A network administrator was new on the job for several days and noticed one of the switches in the network was having amber/red lights; and he/she pulled the switch out of the network, trying to fix it in the lab. After many tries and fixes, in server/client mode, adding/deleting vLans, etc, the bad switch was put back to a working state. This action resulted a high configuration revision number. RESULT The switch re-joined the network, and its revision number being higher than the revision number in the VTP domain had erased all VLAN information from the VTP server and VTP domain, adopting those of switch [X]. The network, with this change of VLAN info, brought the whole company business activities DOWN. This network administrator lost the JOB.
