Figure 15 Schematic diagram for an intersecting-ring network
Dual-homed rings
As shown in Figure 16, two or more rings exist in the network topology and two similar common
nodes exist between rings. You need only define an RRPP domain and configure one ring as the
primary ring and the other rings as subrings.

Single-ring load balancing
In a single-ring network, you can achieve load balancing by configuring multiple domains.
As shown in Figure 17:
• Ring 1 i
s configured as the primary ring of both Domain 1 and Domain 2.
• Domain 1 and Domain 2 are configured with different protected VLANs.
• In Domain 1, Device A is configured as the master node of Ring 1.
• In Domain 2, Device B is configured as the master node of Ring 1.
Such configurations enable the ring to block different links based on VLANs and achieve single-ring
load balancing.
