Figure 6-43. GVRP Configuration screen
This screen allows you to enable or disable GARP VLAN Registration Protocol (GVRP), where GARP is the
Generic Attribute Registration Protocol, on individual ports.
GVRP updates dynamic VLAN registration entries and communicates the new VLAN information across the
network. This allows, among other things, for stations to physically move to other switch ports and keep their
same VLAN settings, without having to reconfigure VLAN settings on the Switch.
Configure GMRP
Group Multicast Registration Protocol (GMRP) allows multicasts to be sent on a single VLAN without
affecting other VLANs or broadcast domains. Group registration entries indicate for each port whether frames
to be sent to a group MAC address and on a certain VLAN should be filtered or discarded. Use the GMRP
Configuration screen to enable or disable GMRP.
Choose Configure GMRP from the bottom of the VLANs & MAC-based Broadcast Domains
Configuration screen (the Switch must already be in IEEE 802.1Q VLANs mode) to access the following
GMRP Configuration screen:
