Configuring
GARP/GVRP
Generic Attribute Registration Protocol (GARP), allows members in the same
switching network to distribute, propagate, and register information, such as
VLAN and multicast addresses.
GARP does not exist in a switch as an entity. A GARP participant is called a GARP
application. The main GARP applications are GVRP and GMRP. GVRP is described
in
Configuring GARP/GVRP and GMRP is described in “GMRP” on page 203.
When a GARP participant is on a port of the switch, each port corresponds to a
GARP participant.
Through GARP, configuration information on one GARP member is advertised to
the entire switching network. A GARP member can be a terminal workstation or a
bridge. A GARP member can notify other members to register or remove its
