Enabling MVRP Globally

You must enable MVRP globally before any MVRP processing occurs on the switch. Enabling MVRP
globally enables MVRP to perform the VLAN pruning on the trunk links. The pruning occurs only on
the MVRP-enabled trunks. For information on setting the per-trunk port MVRP enable state, refer to the
"Enabling MVRP on Individual Trunk Ports" section on page
MVRP cannot be enabled globally and on individual trunk ports if PVLANs exist.
Note
To enable dynamic VLAN creation, you must enable dynamic VLAN creation globally on the switch.
For information on enabling dynamic VLAN creation, refer to the
