  1. If you look under the “Feature VLAN” section, it says “Primary Description: SW1”. VTPv3 is running, SW1 is the primary, so the answer is B.

  2. Also, known of the switches have the “Primary Server” role so SW1 would not have necessarily been the appropriate answer to choose. The switch that has the “Primary Server” role would have been the only switch to create the vlans from.

  3. if that is the case according to Moamer, then B and C will be correct. In this case, A is the best option. In practical, B and C are correct but you can only choose one answer.

  4. Should be B…
    In VTP v3, you can add VLANs only on primary VTP server. In this case, it’s SW1. (Even though Device ID and Primary ID are different on SW1, but Primary Desccription says it’s SW1)… Confusing but still, it must be one primary
