Answer / naveen
Client mode : Accepts,generates, Forwards vtp messages.
At clientmode you cannot create VLAN's
Server mode: Accepts,generates, Forwards vtp messages.
Default VTP mode of every Cisco Switch is
Server mode
At Server mode you can create VLAN's
Transperent Mode : In Cisco switch you cannot disable VTP,
but you can neglect the VTP Messages by Enabling
Transperent Mode. Transperent Mode is the mode in which you
can Create VLAN's, But these Vlan informatation will not be
sent to other switch as done in Server and Client mode

Answer / brijesh
We run vtp over trunk links also known as tagged links. VTP
(Vlan Trunking Protocol but this is not a purely trunking
protocol it is Vlan Replication Protocol).
It has three default modes:
1. Server:
In this mode we can create, delete, modify any vlan/vlan
data. We can delete vlan.dat etc.
2. Client:
In this mode we can only use the services of vlans but we
can not create/modify/delete any vlan.
3. Transparent:
In this mode the switch can forward the vlan from server
to client etc. This feature is available only in VTP V2.
In case of V1, we have to create server configuration again
when any Transparent Switch comes between the network.
NOTE:
In the case of Server we can create default vlan 1-1005,
also known as Standard Vlans.
In the case of Transparent we can create vlan 1-4096 (valid
range 1-4094) also known as Extended Vlans.
