Configuring VLANs

Configuring GARP

 

Page 85 

Defining GVRP

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. To 
define GARP. To define GVRP on the device: 

1.

Click 

Basic Setup > VLAN > GARP > GVRP Parameters

. The 

GVRP Parameters Page

 opens:

Figure 45: GVRP Parameters Page

The 

GVRP Parameters Page 

is divided into port and LAG parameters. The field definitions are the same. The 

GVRP Parameters Page contains the following fields: 

•

Unit No. 

— Displays the stacking member for which the GVRP parameters are displayed. 

•

GVRP Global Status 

— Indicates if GVRP is enabled on the device. The possible field values are: 

–

Enable

 — Enables GVRP on the selected device.

–

Disable

 — Disables GVRP on the selected device.

•

Interface

— DIsplays the port on which GVRP is enabled. 

•

GVRP State

— Indicates if GVRP is enabled on the port. The possible field values are: 

–

Enable

 — Enables GVRP on the selected port.

–

Disable

 — Disables GVRP on the selected port.

•

Dynamic VLAN Creation

 — Indicates if Dynamic VLAN creation is enabled on the interface. The possible 

field values are: 

–

Enable

 — Enables Dynamic VLAN creation on the interface.

–

Disable

 — Disables Dynamic VLAN creation on the interface.
