GVRP Parameters
GARP VLAN Registration Protocol (GVRP) is provided for automatic
distribution of VLAN membership information among VLAN-aware bridges.
GVRP enables VLAN-aware bridges to automatically learn VLANs-to-bridge-
ports mapping, without having to individually configure each bridge and
register VLAN membership.
To ensure the correct operation of the GVRP protocol, it is advised to set the
maximum number of GVRP VLANs equal to a value which significantly
exceeds:
– The number of all static VLANs both currently configured and
expected to be configured.
– The number of all dynamic VLANs participating in GVRP, both
currently configured (initial number of dynamic GVRP VLANs is 128)
and expected to be configured.
To set GVRP parameters:
1 Click Switching > VLAN > GVRP Parameters in the tree view to display
the GVRP Parameters: Summary page.
2 Enable/disable GVRP on the device in the GVRP Global Status field.
3 Check Ports and select either an External or Internal port to view ports on
the unit, or select LAGs to view the LAGs in the system.
4 To set GVRP for an interface, click Edit, and enter the fields:
– Interface — Specifies port or LAG for editing GVRP settings.
– GVRP State — Enable/disable GVRP on the interface.
– Dynamic VLAN Creation — Enable/disable Dynamic VLAN creation
on the interface.
– GVRP Registration — Enable/disable VLAN registration through
GVRP on the interface.
