VTP

 It is a proprietary Cisco Level 2 protocol.The VTP protocol broadcasts 

announcements about creating, deleting, or modifying VLANs.This broadcast is 

carried out through all Switches thanks to a level 2 frame with a very particular 

MAC multicast destination address which is 01-00-0C-CC-CC-CC.
