GARP Multicast Registration Protocol (GMRP)

Local Management Supplement 4-3

Conﬁguring a VLAN on an 802.1Q switch creates a static GVRP entry.

The entry will always remain registered and will not time out. However,

dynamic entries will time-out and their registrations are removed from the

member list if the end station A is removed. This ensures that if switches

are disconnected, or if end stations are removed, the registered

information remains accurate.

The end result is that the Port VLAN List of a port is updated with

information about VLANs that reside off that port, even if the actual

station on the VLAN is several hops away.

4.2 GARP MULTICAST REGISTRATION PROTOCOL (GMRP)

GMRP functions in a similar fashion as GVRP, except that GMRP

registers multicast addresses on ports. The GMRP uses the multicast

address (01-80-C2-00-00-20) for controlling the ﬂooding of multicast

frames. End stations register with the port that they are connected to and

tell the port which multicast frames they will receive. This is

accomplished under control of GMRP, which is propagated in VLAN

context.

More Detail on Received GMRP Frames

The device is capable of supporting multiple ﬁlter databases and each

VLAN is assigned to a database. When GMRP frames are received, they

may contain a tag or be untagged.

If the GMRP frame is untagged, the multicast addresses listed in the

GMRP frame are added to the Port VLAN List of the receiving port. (For

more information about the Port VLAN List, refer to the Cabletron

Systems 802.1Q VLAN Users Guide.)

If the GMRP frame is tagged, then the VLAN ID in the tag is used to ﬁnd

the ﬁlter database to which the multicast address is registered, and then

the frame is transmitted out the appropriate ports accordingly.
