5.2 GVRP Features Supported by the AR3200
This section describes the GVRP features supported by the AR3200.
GVRP is an application of GARP. Based on the working mechanism of GARP, GVRP maintains
dynamic VLAN registration information in a device and propagates the registration information
to other devices.
After GVRP is enabled on the AR3200, the AR3200 can receive VLAN registration information
from other devices and dynamically update local VLAN registration information. VLAN
registration information includes which VLAN members are on the VLAN and through which
interfaces their packets can be sent to the AR3200. The AR3200 can also send the local VLAN
registration information to other devices. By exchanging VLAN registration information, all the
devices on the same LAN have the same VLAN information. The VLAN registration
information transmitted through GVRP contains both static local registration information that
is manually configured and the dynamic registration information from other devices.
A GVRP interface supports three registration modes:
l
Normal: In this mode, the GVRP interface can dynamically register and deregister VLANs,
and transmit dynamic VLAN registration information and static VLAN registration
information.
l
Fixed: In this mode, the GVRP interface is disabled from dynamically registering and
deregistering VLANs and can transmit only the static registration information. If the
registration mode is set to
fixed
for a trunk interface, the interface allows only the manually
configured VLANs to pass even if it is configured to allow all the VLANs to pass.
l
Forbidden: In this mode, the GVRP interface is disabled from dynamically registering and
deregistering VLANs and can transmit only information about VLAN 1. If the registration
mode is set to
forbidden
for a trunk interface, the interface allows only VLAN 1 to pass
even if it is configured to allow all the VLANs to pass.
