HP ProCurve 4208vl

Hello :)!!

I need to create a handful of VLAN's on a HP ProCurve switch. Normally, I use Cisco gear, so please try not to hate!

I have a couple questions! First, when I create a VLAN on the core switch, will that VLAN propagate to my IDF switches (which for the most part are Cisco Catalyst 2960's), or do I need to add that VLAN to the trunk ports of the core manually? Second, if I do have to add them manually, is there a way to pass them to my other IDF's automatically?

​

Thanks in advance!!!
