Setting MVRP Forbidden Registration
The forbidden registration mode prevents any VLAN registration or de-registration. If dynamic VLANs
previously created are present, they are de-registered.
To configure a port to forbidden mode, use the mvrp registration command. For example, to configure
port 2 of slot 1 to forbidden mode, enter the following:
-> mvrp port 1/2 registration forbidden
To view the registration mode of the port, use the show mvrp port command. For example,
-> show mvrp port 1/2
MVRP Enabled : no,
Registrar Mode : forbidden,
Applicant Mode : participant,
Join Timer (msec) : 600,
Leave Timer (msec) : 1800,
LeaveAll Timer (msec) : 30000,
Periodic Timer (sec) : 1,
Periodic Tx status : disabled
To view the MVRP configurations for all the ports, including timer values, registration and applicant
modes, enter the following:
-> show mvrp port enable

Configuring the MVRP Applicant Mode
The MVRP applicant mode determines whether MVRP PDU exchanges are allowed on a port, depending
on the Spanning Tree state of the port. This mode can be configured to be participant, non-participant,
or active. By default, the port is in the active mode.
To prevent undesirable Spanning Tree Protocol topology reconfiguration on a port, configure the MVRP
applicant mode as active. Ports in the MVRP active applicant state send MVRP VLAN declarations even
when they are in the STP blocking state, thereby preventing the STP bridge protocol data units (BPDUs)
from being pruned from the other ports.
To set the applicant mode of a port to active, use the mvrp applicant command. For example, to set the
applicant mode of port 1/2 to active, enter the following:
-> mvrp port 1/2 applicant active
When a port is set to participant mode, MVRP protocol exchanges are allowed only if the port is set to the
STP forwarding state.
