About GVRP

GVRP GARP/Generic VLAN Registration Protocol. A network protocol for automatic configuration of VLAN information on switches. (GARP VLAN Virtual Local Area Network. Separate logical broadcast domain created within a physical network. Registration Protocol) is an application of GARP (Generic Attribute Registration Protocol.) It enables a switch to dynamically create 802.1Q-compliant VLANs on links with other devices running GVRP GARP/Generic VLAN Registration Protocol.
