configure eaps <name> add control vlan <vlan_name>
Description
Adds the specified control VLAN to the specified EAPS domain.
Syntax Description
Default
N/A.
Usage Guidelines
You must configure one control VLAN for each EAPS domain. The control VLAN is used only to send
and receive EAPS messages.
The VLAN that will act as the control VLAN must be configured as follows:
• The VLAN must NOT be assigned an IP address, to avoid loops in the network.
• Only ring ports may be added as members of the control VLAN.
• The ring ports of the control VLAN must be tagged. This ensures that EAPS control VLAN traffic is
serviced before any other traffic and that control VLAN messages reach their intended destinations.
• The control VLAN must be assigned a QoS profile of QP8 with the QoS profile priority setting
HighHi
.
A control VLAN cannot belong to more than one EAPS domain.
