Modifying Mvrp Timers - Alcatel-Lucent OmniSwitch 9900 Series Network Configuration Manual

Configuring MVRP
To set the applicant mode of port 1/2 to participant mode, enter the following:
-> mvrp port 1/2 applicant participant
When a port is set to non-participant mode, MVRP PDUs are not sent through the STP forwarding and
blocking ports.
To set the applicant mode of port 1/2 to non-participant mode, enter the following:
-> mvrp port 1/2 applicant non-participant
The applicant mode of the port can be set to the default value by using the
set the MVRP applicant mode of port 1/2 to the default mode (active mode), enter the following
command:
-> mvrp port 1/2 applicant active

Modifying MVRP Timers

MVRP timers control the timing of dynamic VLAN membership updates to connected devices. The
following are the various timers in MVRP:
•
Join timer—The maximum time an MVRP instance waits before making declaration for VLANs.
•
Leave timer—The wait time taken to remove the port from the VLAN after receiving a Leave message
on that port.
•
LeaveAll timer—The time an MVRP instance takes to generate LeaveAll messages. The LeaveAll
message instructs the port to modify the MVRP state of all its VLANs to Leave.
•
Periodic timer—The time frequency with which the messages are transmitted again and again.
When you set the timer values, the value for the Leave timer must be greater than or equal to twice the
Join timer value plus 100 milliseconds.(Leave>=Join * 2 +100). The LeaveAll timer value must be
greater than or equal to the Leave timer value (LeaveAll >= Leave). If you attempt to set a timer value
that does not adhere to these rules, an error message is displayed.
For example, if you set the Leave timer to 1200 ms and attempt to configure the Join timer to 600 ms, an
error is returned. Set the Leave timer to at least 1300 ms and then set the Join timer to 600 ms.
To modify the Join timer value, use the
value of port 1/2, enter the following:
-> mvrp port 1/2 timer join 600
The Join timer value of port 1/2 is now set to 600 ms.
To set the Leave timer value of port 1/2 to 1800 ms, enter the command as shown:
-> mvrp port 1/2 timer leave 1800
To set the LeaveAll timer of port 1/2 to 30000 ms, enter the command as shown:
-> mvrp port 1/2 timer leaveall 30000
To set the Periodic timer of port 1/2 to 1 second, enter the command as shown:
-> mvrp port 1/2 timer periodic-timer 1
