Defining GVRP
This section explains how to configure GVRP on the device. GARP VLAN Registration Protocol (GVRP) is
specifically provided for automatic distribution of VLAN membership information among VLAN-aware bridges.
GVRP allows VLAN-aware bridges to automatically learn VLANs to bridge ports mapping, without having to
individually configure each bridge and register VLAN membership. This section describes the following topics:
• Configuring GVRP
• Enabling/Disabling GVRP on a Port
Notes
• GVRP cannot be configured if MSTP is enabled on the device.
• The Default button returns all GVRP parameter settings to their default values.
Caution
The settings for the three GVRP timers must be the same on all GVRP-active devices in your network.
