Defining GARP

The Generic Attribute Registration Protocol (GARP) is a general-purpose protocol that

registers any network connectivity or membership-style information. GARP defines a set

of devices interested in a given network attribute, such as VLAN or multicast address.

When configuring GARP, ensure the following:

• The leave time must be greater than or equal to three times the join time.

• The leave-all time must be greater than the leave time.

• Set the same GARP timer values on all Layer 2-connected devices. If the GARP

timers are set differently on the Layer 2-connected devices, the GARP application

does not operate successfully.

To define the GARP settings on the device:

1. Click Layer 2 > VLAN > GARP Settings. The GARP Settings Page opens:
