3-13 GVRP
GVRP is an application based on Generic Attribute Registration Protocol (GARP), mainly
used to automatically and dynamically maintain the VLAN group membership information.
The GVRP provides the VLAN registration service through a GARP application. It uses GARP
Information Declaration (GID) to maintain the ports associated with their attribute database
and GARP Information Propagation (GIP) to communicate among switches and end stations.
With GID information and GIP, GVRP state machine maintains the contents of Dynamic
VLAN Registration Entries for each VLAN and propagates this information to other GVRP-
aware devices to set up and update their knowledge database, the set of VLANs associated
with currently active members, and the ports where these members can be reached.
