Note:
In a network containing switches with both GVRP and MSTP enabled, GVRP packets
are forwarded along the CIST. In this case, if you want to broadcast packets of a
specific VLAN through GVRP, be sure to map the VLAN to the CIST when configuring
the MSTP VLAN mapping table (the CIST of a network is spanning tree instance 0).
