Defining GVRP

The GVRP Page enables users to configure GARP VLAN Registration Protocol (GVRP) on the device. GVRP is
specifically provided for automatic distribution of VLAN membership information among VLAN-aware bridges.
GVRP allows VLAN-aware bridges to automatically learn VLANs to bridge ports mapping, without having to
individually configure each bridge and register VLAN membership.

In the GVRP Page, users can do the following tasks:

Configuring GVRP

Enabling/Disabling GVRP on a Port

The settings for the three GVRP timers must be the same on all GVRP-active devices in your network. This is
configurable only in the CLI, using the config-if garp timer command.

Configuring GVRP

To define GVRP on the device:

1.

Click Layer 2 > GVRP. The GVRP Page opens:
