Fixed Core And Dynamic Edge; Fixed Core And Fixed Edge - HP ProCurve 9304M Installation And Configuration Manual

Configuring GARP VLAN Registration Protocol (GVRP)

Fixed Core and Dynamic Edge

In this configuration, GVRP learning is enabled on the edge devices. The VLANs on the core device are statically
configured, and the core device is enabled to advertise its VLANs but not to learn VLANs. The edge devices learn
the VLANs from the core.
Enter the following commands on the core device:
HP9300> enable
HP9300# configure terminal
HP9300(config)# vlan 20
HP9300(config-vlan-20)# tag ethernet 1/24
HP9300(config-vlan-20)# tag ethernet 6/24
HP9300(config-vlan-20)# vlan 30
HP9300(config-vlan-30)# tag ethernet 6/24
HP9300(config-vlan-30)# tag ethernet 8/17
HP9300(config-vlan-30)# vlan 40
HP9300(config-vlan-40)# tag ethernet 1/5
HP9300(config-vlan-40)# tag ethernet 8/17
HP9300(config-vlan-40)# vlan 50
HP9300(config-vlan-50)# untag ethernet 6/1
HP9300(config-vlan-50)# tag ethernet 1/11
HP9300(config-vlan-50)# exit
HP9300(config)# gvrp-enable
HP9300(config-gvrp)# enable ethernet 1/24 ethernet 6/24 ethernet 8/17
HP9300(config-gvrp)# block-learning ethernet 1/24 ethernet 6/24 ethernet 8/17
These VLAN commands configure VLANs 20, 30, 40, and 50. The GVRP commands enable the protocol on the
ports that are connected to the edge devices, and disable VLAN learning on those ports. All the VLANs are
advertised by GVRP.
Enter the following commands on edge devices A, B, and C:
HP9300> enable
HP9300# configure terminal
HP9300(config)# gvrp-enable
HP9300(config-gvrp)# enable all
HP9300(config-gvrp)# block-applicant all

Fixed Core and Fixed Edge

The VLANs are statically configured on the core and edge devices. On each edge device, VLAN advertising is
enabled but learning is disabled. GVRP is not configured on the core device. This configuration enables the
devices in the edge clouds to learn the VLANs configured on the edge devices.
This configuration does not use any GVRP configuration on the core device.
The configuration on the edge device is the same as in "Dynamic Core and Fixed Edge" on page 12-17.
