This is why the 'switch w/ higher vtp revision' is a problem -- there is no
single root vtp server. Instead, each server has a copy of the database and
when updates are made, it bumps the revision and the other servers grab it.
(ie. you can make vlan database changes on _any_ vtp server and the changes
will be replicated across the domain).
