Question

You are the network administrator of a network. The campus network has 20 active VLANs. What action could you take to reduce broadcast traffic across trunk links?

a.Create more VLANs to further segment broadcast domains                    

b.Enable VTP pruning on a VTP server in the domain                      

c.Configure Fast EtherChannel on trunk links for more aggreate bandwidth                        

d.Segment the network with routers and implment IP helper addresses for broadcast applications.

Explanation / Answer

VTP pruning is to be enabled on a VTP server, so that; the pruning will be enabled over the domain. VTP pruning helps to prune or remove the unnecessary traffic.

VTP pruning can’t prune traffic from pruning-ineligible VLANs. There are some default VLANs , like VLAN 1 and VLANs 1002 ,that are pruning ineligible i.e., traffic in these VLANs not pruned. A VLAN exempted from traffic pruning, by setting VLAN as pruning -ineligible

Thus, the correct option is (c) Enable VTP pruning on a VTP server in the domain
