ERP support for PBB
(Brocade MLX series and Brocade NetIron XMR)
As of NetIron R05.3.00 the Brocade MLX series and Brocade NetIron XMR platforms support PBB
using a local VPLS infrastructure.
To support ERP over a PBB network on the Brocade MLX series and Brocade NetIron XMR platforms
will make use of topology groups. The ERP protocol will be run on a regular L2 VLAN which will be
the master VLAN of the topology group and the VPLS VLANs which will carry the PB/PBB traffic will
be member VLANs of the topology group.
