Configuring basic GVRP functions
Configuration prerequisites
Before enabling GVRP on a port, you must enable GVRP globally. In addition, you can configure GVRP
only on trunk ports, and you must assign the involved trunk ports to all dynamic VLANs.
Configuration restrictions and guidelines
• GVRP is mutually exclusive with service loopback.
• GVRP can work with STP, RSTP, or MSTP CIST. When GVRP runs on the CIST, blocked ports on the
CIST cannot receive/send GVRP packets. For more information about STP, RSTP, and MSTP CIST,
see "Configuring the spanning tree."
• Do not enable both GVRP and remote port mirroring. Otherwise, GVRP might register the remote
probe VLAN to unexpected ports, which would cause the monitor port to receive undesired
duplicates. For more information about port mirroring, see Network Management and Monitoring
Configuration Guide.
• Enabling GVRP on a Layer 2 aggregate interface enables both the aggregate interface and all
selected member ports in the corresponding link aggregation group to participate in dynamic
VLAN registration and deregistration.
