ERPS Ring
Configuration
Use the Administration > ERPS (Configure Domain) pages to configure ERPS rings.
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 468) 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.
