GVRP
GVRP (GARP VLAN Registration Protocol or Generic VLAN Registration Protocol) is a standards-based protocol
that facilitates control of virtual local area networks (VLANs) within a larger network. GVRP conforms to the IEEE
802.1Q specification, which defines a method of tagging frames with VLAN configuration data over network
trunk interconnects. This enables network devices to dynamically exchange VLAN configuration information with
other devices.
To configure GVRP in the web UI:
1.
Click VLAN Management and GVRP.
2.
Enable or disable GVRP.
3.
Specify Join-time, Leave-time, Leave All-time, and Max VLANs.
4.
Enable or disable the Mode for each port as desired.
5.
Click Apply to save the settings.
6.
To cancel the settings, click the Reset button to revert to previously saved values.
