themselves. Since an EtherChannel is treated like one virtual port by STP, the GVRP application can
learn the STP state change of the EtherChannel just like any physical port. The EtherChannel, not the
physical ports in the channel, constitutes the GARP Information Propagation (GIP) context.

High Availability
High Availability (HA) is a redundancy feature in Cisco IOS software. On platforms that support HA
and State SwitchOver (SSO), many features and protocols may resume working in a couple of seconds
after the system encounters a failure such as a crash of the active supervisor in a Catalyst 7600 switch.
GVRP needs to be configured to enable user configurations, and protocol states should be synched to a
standby system. If there is a failure of the active system, the GVRP in the standby system, which now
becomes active, has all the up-to-date VLAN registration information.
