Configuring GARP
Generic Attribute Registration Protocol (GARP) is a general-purpose protocol that registers any network
connectivity or membership-style information. GARP defines a set of switches interested in a given network
attribute, such as VLAN or multicast address.
The GARP VLAN Registration Protocol (GVRP) provides a mechanism that allows networking switches to
dynamically register (and de-register) VLAN membership information with the networking devices attached to
the same segment, and for that information to be disseminated across all networking switches in the bridged
LAN that support GARP Multicast Registration Protocol (GMRP).
With the GARP Multicast Registration Protocol (GMRP), networking devices can dynamically register and de-
register group membership information with the networking devices attached to the same segment. GMRP
enables the group membership information to be disseminated across all networking devices in the bridged
LAN that support GMRP.
The operation of GVRP and GMRP relies upon the services provided by GARP.
