The GARP mechanism allows the configuration of a GARP participant to propagate through a network
quickly. A GARP participant registers or de-registers its attributes with other participants by making or
withdrawing declarations of attributes. At the same time, based on received declarations or
withdrawals, GARP handles attributes of other participants.
GVRP enables a device to propagate virtual local area network (VLAN) registration information to
other participant devices and dynamically update the VLAN registration information from other
devices. The registration information updates local databases regarding active VLAN members and
through which port the VLANs can be reached.
GVRP ensures that all participants on a bridged LAN maintain the same VLAN registration
information. The VLAN registration information propagated by GVRP include both manually
configured local static entries and dynamic entries from other devices.
GVRP participants have the following components:
•
