GVRP configuration task list
Complete these tasks to configure GVRP:
Configuring GVRP functions
NOTE:
GVRP configuration made in Ethernet interface view or Layer 2 aggregate interface view takes effect on the
current interface only. GVRP configuration made in port group view takes effect on all the member ports in the
group.
GVRP configuration made on a member port in an aggregation group takes effect only after the port is removed
from the aggregation group.
Configuring GVRP functions
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.
Follow these steps to configure GVRP functions on a trunk port:
