I've been toying with the idea of using Link Aggregation between our 5324 and 5316M switches. We are currently using ESX and VLAN's extensively.

 

The whitepapers I've read about mention that for it to work properly GVRP cannot be enabled.

 

Does this mean on the specific ports that are going to be members of a LAG as well as the Global GVRP enable setting?

 

Is GVRP worthwhile or should I just tag the ports / LAG's that are connected to other switches so it always knows what VLAN traffic to expect?

 

Cheers
