ESW16 VTP configuration: ESW4 VTP configuration: WireShark capture on the link between switches:

One Answer:
You are using version 1. The "VTP Version" statement in that show command only says what the switch is capable of, meanwhile you can see in the "V2 Mode" statement that it is disabled. Since it is only capable of versions 1 or 2, and version 2 is disabled, you are using version 1. answered 20 Sep '15, 09:18  Quadratic |
Thanks, but enabling the VTP version 2 had no effect on the capture result.
Thank you Quadratic. I modified my configuration and set the VTP version to 2, but the result of capturing was the same as the previous.

Do the summary advertisements show version 1? I suspect not. :)
I'm being coy, but there's no difference between a join message in one version or the other. If you're running version 2, you should see it in the summary advertisements though. So, the message is a version 1 message basically. I just double-checked my memory with a real switch and confirmed this - the summaries should be V2, joins are advertised V1.
Thank you very much, I got it. :)
