Administrator Guide

• Leave — When a GARP device expects to de-register a piece of attribute information, it sends out a Leave message and starts this
timer. If a Join message does not arrive before the timer expires, the information is de-registered. The Leave timer must be greater
than or equal to 3x the Join timer. The default is 600ms.
• LeaveAll — After startup, a GARP device globally starts a LeaveAll timer. After expiration of this interval, it sends out a LeaveAll
message so that other GARP devices can re-register all relevant attribute information. The device then restarts the LeaveAll timer to
begin a new cycle. The LeaveAll timer must be greater than or equal to 5x of the Leave timer. The default is
10000ms.
