5.2 GVRP Configuration

5.2.1 Introduction to GVRP

GARP (Generic Attribute Registration Protocol) can be used to dynamically distribute,
populate and register property information between switch members within a switch
network, the property can be VLAN information, Multicast MAC address of the other
information. As a matter of fact, GARP protocol can convey multiple property features the
switch need to populate. Various GARP applications are defined on the basis of GARP,
which are called GARP application entities, and GVRP is one of them.
GVRP (GARP VLAN Registration Protocol) is an application based on GARP
working mechanism. It is responsible for the maintenance of dynamic VLAN register
information and population of such register information to the other switches. Switches
support GVRP can receive VLAN dynamic register information from the other switches,
and update local VLAN register information according the information received. The
switch enabled GVRP can also populate their own VLAN register information to the other
switches. The populated VLAN register information includes local static information
manually configured and dynamic information learnt from the other switches. Therefore,
by populating the VLAN register information, VLAN information consistency can be
achieved among all GVRP enabled switches.
