GVRP CLI examples
Brocade> enable
Brocade#configure terminal
Brocade(config)#gvrp-enable
Brocade(config-gvrp)#enable all
Fixed core and dynamic edge
In this configuration, GVRP learning is enabled on the edge devices. The VLANs on the core device
are statically configured, and the core device is enabled to advertise its VLANs but not to learn
VLANs. The edge devices learn the VLANs from the core.
Enter the following commands on the core device.
Brocade> enable
Brocade#configure terminal
Brocade(config)#vlan 20
Brocade(config-vlan-20)#tag ethernet 1/24
Brocade(config-vlan-20)#tag ethernet 6/24
Brocade(config-vlan-20)#vlan 30
Brocade(config-vlan-30)#tag ethernet 6/24
Brocade(config-vlan-30)#tag ethernet 8/17
Brocade(config-vlan-30)#vlan 40
Brocade(config-vlan-40)#tag ethernet 1/5
Brocade(config-vlan-40)#tag ethernet 8/17
Brocade(config-vlan-40)#vlan 50
Brocade(config-vlan-50)#untag ethernet 6/1
Brocade(config-vlan-50)#tag ethernet 1/11
Brocade(config-vlan-50)#exit
Brocade(config)#gvrp-enable
Brocade(config-gvrp)#enable ethernet 1/24 ethernet 6/24 ethernet 8/17
Brocade(config-gvrp)#block-learning ethernet 1/24 ethernet 6/24 ethernet 8/17
These VLAN commands configure VLANs 20, 30, 40, and 50. The GVRP commands enable the
protocol on the ports that are connected to the edge devices, and disable VLAN learning on those
ports. All the VLANs are advertised by GVRP.
Enter the following commands on edge devices A, B, and C.
Brocade> enable
Brocade#configure terminal
Brocade(config)#gvrp-enable
Brocade(config-gvrp)#enable all
Brocade(config-gvrp)#block-applicant all
Fixed core and fixed edge
The VLANs are statically configured on the core and edge devices. On each edge device, VLAN
advertising is enabled but learning is disabled. GVRP is not configured on the core device. This
configuration enables the devices in the edge clouds to learn the VLANs configured on the edge
devices.
This configuration does not use any GVRP configuration on the core device.
The configuration on the edge device is the same as in “Dynamic core and fixed edge” on
page 902.
