Defining GARP
The Generic Attribute Registration Protocol (GARP) is a general-purpose protocol that
registers any network connectivity or membership-style information. GARP defines a set
of devices interested in a given network attribute, such as VLAN or multicast address.
When configuring GARP, ensure the following:
•
The leave time must be greater than or equal to three times the join time.
•
The leave-all time must be greater than the leave time.
•
Set the same GARP timer values on all Layer 2-connected devices. If the GARP
timers are set differently on the Layer 2-connected devices, the GARP application
does not operate successfully.
To define the GARP settings on the device:
1. Click Layer 2 > VLAN > GARP Settings . The GARP Settings Page opens:
