VLAN C
ONFIGURATION
2-85
• GARP Leave Timer* – The interval a port waits before leaving 
a VLAN group. This time should be set to more than twice the 
join time. This ensures that after a Leave or LeaveAll message 
has been issued, the applicants can rejoin before the port 
actually leaves the group. (Range: 60-3000 centiseconds; 
Default: 60)
• GARP LeaveAll Timer* – The interval between sending out a 
LeaveAll query message for VLAN group participants and the 
port leaving the group. This interval should be considerably 
larger than the Leave Time to minimize the amount of traffic 
generated by nodes rejoining the group. 
(Range: 500-18000 centiseconds; Default: 1000)
* GARP timer settings must follow this rule: 
2 x (join timer) < leave timer < leaveAll timer
• Mode – Indicates VLAN membership mode for a port. 
(Configure via CLI, see page 3-134.)
- 1Q Trunk – Specifies a port as an end-point for a VLAN 
trunk. A trunk is a direct link between two switches, so the 
port transmits tagged frames that identify the source VLAN. 
However, note that frames belonging to the port’s default 
VLAN (i.e., associated with the PVID) are sent untagged. 
- Hybrid – Specifies a hybrid VLAN interface. The port may 
receive or transmit tagged or untagged frames. 
• Trunk Member – Indicates if a port is a member of a trunk. 
To add a trunk to the selected VLAN, use the last table on the 
VLAN Static Table page.
