GVRP configuration
GVRP allows users to set-up VLANs automatically rather than manual configuration on
every port of every switch in the network. In low volume and stable network, the GVRP can
reduce the configuration effort. For high volume and high secure request network, the
Static VLAN configuration is always preferred.
GVRP Protocol:
Allow user to enable/disable GVRP globally.
State:
After enable GVRP globally, here still can enable/disable GVRP by port.
Join Timer:
Controls the interval of sending the GVRP Join BPDU. An instance of this timer
is required on a per-Port, per-GARP Participant basis
Leave Timer:
Control the time to release the GVRP reservation after received the GVRP
Leave BPDU. An instance of the timer is required for each state machine that is in the LV
state
Leave All Timer:
Controls the period to initiate the garbage collection of registered VLAN.
The timer is required on a per-Port, per-GARP Participant basis
