VTP servers advertise their VLAN configurations to other switches in the same VTP domain and synchronize their VLAN configurations with other switches based on advertisements received over trunk links. VTP server is the default mode. Server mode on switch is typically configured when decided to manage (add, remove, name) VLANs from one place (this switch). The rest of switches work then in Client mode.
To configure switch to work as VTP server mode:
switch# configure terminal
switch(config)#vtp domain Grandmetriclabs.com
switch(config)#vtp password cisco
switch(config)#vtp mode server
switch(config)#end
To verify the VTP mode use:
switch#show vtp status
