GVRP Support

GARP VLAN Registration Protocol (GVRP) provides IEEE 802.1Q-

compliant VLAN pruning and dynamic VLAN creation on 802.1Q trunk

ports. When GVRP is enabled, the device registers and propagates VLAN

membership on all ports that are part of the active underlying Spanning Tree

Protocol topology.
For more information, see "GVRP Parameters" on page 327.

Voice VLAN

Voice VLAN enables network administrators to enhance VoIP service by

configuring ports to carry IP voice traffic from IP phones on a specific VLAN.

VoIP traffic has a preconfigured OUI prefix in the source MAC address.

Network administrators can configure VLANs from which voice IP traffic is

forwarded. Non-VoIP traffic is dropped from the Voice VLAN in Auto-Voice

VLAN Secure mode. Voice VLAN also provides QoS to VoIP, ensuring that the

quality of voice does not deteriorate if the IP traffic is received unevenly.
For more information, see "Voice VLAN" on page 332.

Guest VLAN

Guest VLAN provides limited network access to unauthorized ports. If a port

is denied network access via port-based authorization, but the Guest VLAN is

enabled, the port receives limited network access through the Guest VLAN.
For more information, see "Dot1x Authentication" on page 259.

Private VLAN

The Private VLAN feature provides Layer 2 isolation between ports that share

the same Broadcast domain, or in other words, it creates a point-to-

multipoint Broadcast domain. The ports can be located anywhere in the

Layer 2 network.
For more information, see "Private VLAN" on page 329.
