2. From the core switch web interface, go to the VLAN/GVRP page and ensure that GVRP Status is set to enabled.
3. For the other three switches, ensure that GVRP is enabled globally in the VLAN/GVRP page, as well as on ports connecting to the core switch in the
VLAN/Port Settings page.
With GVRP enabled on the core switch, GVRP advertisements for the three static VLANs are sent from all ports on the switch. When the three wiring-closet
switches receive the advertisements, they dynamically create the VLANs and the receiving ports join these VLANs.
The clouds connected to the wiring closet switches in the
VLAN as forbidden on the connecting port, the core switch limits each network segment to only two of the VLANs. For example, users attached to Switch 3
have access to VLANs 11 and 22, but not to VLAN 33. End-user requests enable ports on Switch 3 to join VLAN 33, but these users do not have access to the
rest of the network.
Example 4
Example 4 illustrates how GVRP is implemented where VLANs configured in wiring-closet switches are automatically recognized by a core aggregation switch.
1. Set up static VLANs in Switch 1, as shown in the following table:
VLAN ID Name Port Members (Tagged/Untagged)
11 Red 5 (T), (other ports as required)
33 Blue 5 (T), (other ports as required)
2. Set up static VLANs in Switch 2, as shown in the following table:
VLAN ID Name Port Members (Tagged/Untagged)
22 Green 2 (T), (other ports as required)
33 Blue 2 (T), (other ports as required)
3. Set up static VLANs in Switch 3, as shown in the following table:
VLAN ID Name Port Members (Tagged/Untagged)
11 Red 1 (T), (other ports as required)
22 Green 1 (T), (other ports as required)
