Add GVRP support for dynamically registering VLANs with switches. By default GVRP is disabled because we only support the applicant-only participant model, which means it should not be enabled on vlans that are members of a bridge. Since there is currently no way to cleanly determine that, the user is responsible for enabling it. The code is pretty small and low impact, its wrapped in a config option though because it depends on the GARP implementation and the STP core.

Select this and you will be able to create 802.1Q VLAN interfaces
|
|
on your ethernet interfaces. 802.1Q VLAN supports almost
|
|
everything a regular ethernet interface does, including
|
|
firewalling, bridging, and of course IP traffic. You will need
|
|
the 'vconfig' tool from the VLAN project in order to effectively
|
|
use VLANs. See the VLAN web page for more information:

To compile this code as a module, choose M here: the module
|
|
will be called 8021q.

If unsure, say N.

Select this to enable GVRP end-system support. GVRP is used for
|
|
automatic propagation of registered VLANs to switches.
