Table 28 shows the value ranges for Join, Leave, and LeaveAll timers and their dependencies.

Enabling GVRP compatibility
MVRP can be compatible with GVRP. When the peer device supports GVRP, you can enable GVRP
compatibility on the local end, so that the local end can receive and send MVRP and GVRP protocol
packets at the same time.
