Usage Guidelines

Usage Scenario

When a GARP participant is enabled, the LeaveAll timer is started. When the LeaveAll timer expires, the GARP participant sends LeaveAll messages to request other GARP participants to re-register all its attributes. Then the LeaveAll timer restarts.

Devices on a network may have different settings for the LeaveAll timer. In this case, all the devices use the smallest LeaveAll timer value on the network. When the LeaveAll timer of a device expires, the device sends LeaveAll messages to other devices. After other devices receive the LeaveAll messages, they reset their LeaveAll timers. Therefore, only the LeaveAll timer with the smallest value takes effect even if devices have different settings for the LeaveAll timer.

Prerequisites

Before setting GARP timers on an interface, you must enable GVRP globally.

Precautions

The Leave timer length on an interface is restricted by the global LeaveAll timer length. When configuring the global LeaveAll timer, ensure that all the interfaces that have a GARP Leave timer configured are working properly.

Example

# Set the LeaveAll timer to 510 centiseconds.
