Configuration restrictions and guidelines
When you configure MVRP, follow these restrictions and guidelines:
•
MVRP can work with STP, RSTP, or MSTP. MVRP cannot work with other link layer topology protocols,
including service loopback, PVST, RRPP, and Smart Link. Ports blocked by STP, RSTP, or MSTP can
receive and send MVRP frames.
For more information about STP, RSTP, MSTP, and PVST, see "Configuring spanning tree
protocols."
For more information about service loopback, see "Configuring service loopback groups."
For more information about RRPP and Smart Link, see High Availability Configuration Guide.
•
Do not configure both MVRP and remote port mirroring on a port. Otherwise, MVRP might register
the remote probe VLAN with incorrect ports, which would cause the monitor port to receive
undesired copies. For more information about port mirroring, see Network Management and
Monitoring Configuration Guide.
•
MVRP takes effect only on trunk ports. For more information about trunk ports, see "Configuring
VLANs."
•
Enabling MVRP on a Layer 2 aggregate interface takes effect on the aggregate interface and all
Selected member ports in the link aggregation group.
•
MVRP configuration made on an aggregation group member port takes effect only after the port is
removed from the aggregation group.
Configuration prerequisites
Before configuring MVRP, make sure each MSTI is mapped to an existing VLAN on each device in the
network.
Enabling MVRP
Step Command
Remarks
1.
Enter system view.
system-view N/A
2.
Enable MVRP globally.
mvrp global enable
By default, MVRP is globally
disabled.
To make MVRP take effect on a
port, enable MVRP both on the port
and globally.
3.
Enter Layer 2 Ethernet
interface view or Layer 2
aggregate interface view.
interface interface-type

N/A
4.
Configure the port as a trunk
port.
port link-type trunk
By default, any port is an access
port. For more information about
the port link-type trunk command,
