6.13 GVRP

GVRP is an application based on Generic Attribute Registration Protocol (GARP), mainly used to automatically and dynamically maintain the group membership information of the VLANs. The GVRP provides VLAN registration through a GARP application. It uses GARP Information Declaration (GID) to maintain the ports associated with their attribute database and GARP Information Propagation (GIP) to communicate among switches and end stations. With GID information and GIP, GVRP state machines maintain the contents of dynamic VLAN registration entries for each VLAN and propagate this information to other GVRP-aware devices to set up and update their knowledge database, the set of VLANs associated with currently active members, and through which ports these members can be reached.
