What is vtpDatabaseName?
This read-only string, up to 64 characters, holds the name assigned to a particular VTP (VLAN Trunking Protocol) database instance on the switch. Since VTP version 3 can track multiple independent database types (such as VLAN and MST) within a management domain, this name lets an administrator identify which specific database a given VTP-related object or advertisement refers to. For example, when checking VTP status on a switch, an admin might see a database named "VLAN" alongside one named "MST", confirming both are being advertised within the domain.
Examples
Walk all instances (SNMPv2c):
snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.9.9.46.1.8.1.1.2 snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> CISCO-VTP-MIB::vtpDatabaseName
Get a specific instance (index 1):
snmpget -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.9.9.46.1.8.1.1.2.1 snmpget -v2c -c public <target> CISCO-VTP-MIB::vtpDatabaseName.1
SNMPv3 example:
snmpget -v3 -l authPriv -u snmpv3-user -a SHA -A "AuthPassword1" -x AES -X "PrivPassword1" <target> vtpDatabaseName.1
