C Correct answer
Explanation

VTP (VLAN Trunking Protocol) requires switches to be in the same domain to exchange VLAN information. Without matching domain names, VTP advertisements are ignored between switches, preventing VLAN synchronization. The revision number automatically synchronizes once domains match - it should NOT be manually set higher.
