VIRTUAL LANS (VLANS)

VLANs that are automatically created using GVRP with the VLANid 10 are given names in the following format:

gvrp vlan xxxx

where xxxx is the VLANid (in decimal) that is discovered by GVRP. These VLANs are not permanently stored in NVRAM, and you cannot add or remove ports from these VLANs.

GVRP assumes that the VLANs for which it carries information operate using VLAN tags, unless explicitly configured otherwise. Typically, you must configure any untagged VLANs on the switches at the edges of the network, and the GVRP protocol is used across the core of the network to automatically configure other switches using tagged VLANs.
