GMRP
GMRP (Group Multicast Registration Protocol) allows ports to dynamically join multicast groups.
It provides a mechanism that allows bridges and end-stations to dynamically register (and

Field
Description
GVRP
Specifies whether the port can dynamically become a member of a VLAN.
This protocol allows the port to share VLAN information with other ports so
that a VLAN can span multiple switches.
Ingress Checking
Specifies whether a port checks the VID of incoming packets against its VID
or PVID. If the two are equal, the port will receive the packet. It the two are
unequal, the port will drop the packet. This is used to limit traffic to a single
VLAN.
Field
Description
Port
Specifies which port to configure (1-26).
GMRP State
Specifies the state (off or on) of GMRP for this port.
