Ring wizard example
The above topology often occurs when using the ERPS protocol. The multiswitch
constitutes a single ERPS ring; all of the switches are only configured as an ERPS in
VLAN 3001, thereby constituting a single MRPP ring.
Switch ID
Port MEP ID RPL Type VLAN Group
Switch 1
Port 1 1 None 3001
Port 2 2 Owner 3001
Switch 2
Port 1 4 None 3001
Port 2 3 Neighbor 3001
Switch 3
Port 1 6 None 3001
Port 2 5 None 3001
The scenario is described as follows:
1. Disable the DHCP client and set a proper static IP for switch 1, 2, and 3. In this
example, switch 1 is 192.168.0.101, switch 2 is 192.168.0.102, and switch 3 is
192.168.0.103.
2. On switch 1, 2, and 3, disable STP to avoid a conflict with ERPS.
Setup steps
Set ERPS configuration on switch 1
1. Connect a PC directly to switch 1. Do not connect to port 1 or 2.
