Chapter 2 Catalyst 6500 Series Switch and ROM Monitor Commands
set gvrp applicant
set gvrp applicant
To specify whether or not a VLAN is declared out of blocking ports, use the set gvrp applicant
command.
set gvrp applicant {normal | active} {mod/port...}
Syntax Description
Defaults The default is GVRP applicant set to normal.
Command Types Switch command.
Command Modes Privileged.
Usage Guidelines To run GVRP on a trunk, you need to enable GVRP both globally on the switch and individually on the
trunk.
On a port connected to a device that does not support the per-VLAN mode of STP, the port state may
continuously cycle from blocking to listening to learning, and back to blocking. To prevent this, you
must enter the set gvrp applicant active mod/port... command on the port to send GVRP VLAN
declarations when the port is in the STP blocking state.
Examples This example shows how to enforce the declaration of all active VLANs out of specified blocking ports:
Console> (enable) set gvrp applicant active 4/2-3,4/9-10,4/12-24
Applicant was set to active on port(s) 4/2-3,4/9-10,4/12-24.
Console> (enable)
This example shows how to disallow the declaration of any VLAN out of specified blocking ports:
Console> (enable) set gvrp applicant normal 4/2-3,4/9-10,4/12-24
Applicant was set to normal on port(s) 4/2-3,4/9-10,4/12-24.
Console> (enable)
