Disabling GIP on the Switch
You can disable the GARP Information Propagation (GIP) component
separately from GVRP on the switch. GIP must be enabled if the switch is
using GVRP. There is never any reason to disable GIP. Even if the switch
is not performing GVRP, you can still leave GIP enabled.
The command for disabling GIP is GVRP APPLICANT STATE NORMAL
command. Here is the command:
awplus> enable
awplus# configure terminal
awplus(config)# gvrp applicant state normal
For reference information, refer to “GVRP APPLICANT STATE NORMAL”
