Trunk Port for 802.1X

We have about 120 Netgear GS110TPv3 switches in use for connecting end user equipment.

The switches are great because they support 802.1X, allowing us to dynamically assign VLANs to ports. The Disadvantage is that we also need GVRP because there is no way to set the uplink port as "General trunk port" or "Uplink port" (or is there a way I do not know?).

 

It would be great if I can set a port to "Uplink" or "Trunk Port" and the switch is adding this port tagged to all known and learned VLANs (like VLANs learned via 802.1X) automatically.
