Each end of the trunk link must be set to the IEEE 802.1e encapsulation.
The VTP management domain name of both switches must be set the same.
All ports on both the switches must be set as access ports.
One of the two switches must be configured as a VTP server.
A rollover cable is required to connect the two switches together.
A router must be used to forward VTP traffic between VLANs.

A.     1, 2 and 4
B.     3, 5 and 6
C.     2 and 4
