COMMAND USAGE
Ring Initialization
An ERPS ring containing one Control VLAN and one or more protected Data
VLANs must be configured, and the global ERPS function enabled on the
switch (see "ERPS Global Configuration" on page 491) before a ring can
start running. Once enabled, the RPL owner node and non-owner node
state machines will start, and the ring will enter the active state.
Limitations
When configuring a ring port, note that these ports cannot be part of a
spanning tree, nor can they be members of a static or dynamic trunk.
