ERPS Configuration

SAGE

Configure one control VLAN for each ERPS ring. First create the VLAN to

be used as the control VLAN (

vlan

,

page 1114

), add the ring ports for

the east and west interface as tagged members to this VLAN

(

switchport allowed vlan

,

page 1117

), and then use the

control-vlan

command to add it to the ring.

The following restrictions are recommended to avoid creating a loop in

the network or other problems which may occur under some situations:

The Control VLAN must not be configured as a Layer 3 interface

(with an IP address), a dynamic VLAN (with GVRP enabled), nor as

a private VLAN.

In addition, only ring ports may be added to the Control VLAN. No

other ports can be members of this VLAN.

Also, the ring ports of the Control VLAN must be tagged.

Once the ring has been activated with the

enable

command, the

configuration of the control VLAN cannot be modified. Use the

no

enable

command to stop the ERPS ring before making any

configuration changes to the control VLAN.
