It thus ensures that all GVRP participants on a bridged LANmaintain the same VLAN registration information. The VLAN registration informationpropagated by GVRP includes both manually configured local static entries anddynamic entries from other devices.GVRP provides the following three registration types on a port:z Normal –– Enables the port to dynamically register and deregister VLANs, and topropagate both dynamic and static VLAN information.z Fixed –– Disables the port to dynamically register and deregister VLANs orpropagate information about dynamic VLANs, but allows the port to propagateinformation about static VLANs. A trunk port with fixed registration type thus allowsonly manually configured VLANs to pass through even though it is configured tocarry all VLANs.z Forbidden –– Disables the port to dynamically register and deregister VLANs, andto propagate VLAN information except information about VLAN 1. A trunk port with
