GVRP Commands

GARP VLAN Registration Protocol (GVRP) is used to propagate VLAN 

membership information throughout the network. GVRP is based on the 

Generic Attribute Registration Protocol (GARP), which defines a method of 

propagating a defined attribute (that is, VLAN membership) throughout the 

network. GVRP allows both end stations and the networking device to issue 

and revoke declarations relating to membership in VLANs. End stations that 

participate in GVRP register VLAN membership using GARP Protocol Data 

Unit (GPDU) messages. Networking devices that implement the GVRP 

protocol and enable GVRP then process the GPDUs. The VLAN registration 

is made in the context of the port that receives the GPDU. The networking 

device propagates this VLAN membership on all of its other ports in the 

active topology. Thus, the end station VLAN ID is propagated throughout the 

network. GVRP is an application defined in the IEEE 802.1p standard that 

allows for the control of 802.1Q VLANs.

This chapter explains the following commands:

Use the clear gvrp statistics command in Privileged EXEC mode to clear all 

the GVRP statistics information.
