Configuring VLAN Stacking Interaction With Other Features

Interaction With Other Features
This section contains important information about VLAN Stacking interaction with other OmniSwitch
features. Refer to the specific chapter for each feature to get more detailed information about how to
configure and use the feature.
GARP VLAN Registration Protocol (GVRP)
• GVRP control frames are tunneled by default; processing of GVRP frames similar to processing of
Spanning Tree frames (see below).
• The VLAN Stacking provider edge (PE) switch will not tunnel GVRP frames unless the GVRP feature
and/or GVRP transparent switching functionality is enabled on the PE switch. This is true even if
GVRP processing is enabled for the VLAN Stacking port.
IP Multicast VLANs
The IP Multicast VLANs (IPMV) application has the following interactions with VLAN Stacking func-
tionality and commands:
• IPMV operates in one of two modes: enterprise or VLAN Stacking. When the enterprise mode is
active, IPMV uses sender and receiver ports for IP multicast traffic. When the IPMV VLAN Stacking
mode is active, IPMV maps sender and receiver ports to VLAN Stacking NNI and UNI ports.
• If IPMV is operating in the enterprise mode, there are no CLI usage changes.
• If IPMV is operating in the VLAN Stacking mode, the following VLAN Stacking CLI commands are
used to configure interoperability with IPMV:
See the OmniSwitch CLI Reference Guide for more information about these commands.
