Commands on switch A (master node)

The following commands configure a VLAN for the ring. The ring VLAN must contain both of the
node’s interfaces with the ring. Add these interfaces as tagged interfaces, since the interfaces
also must be in each of the customer VLANs configured on the node.

BigIron RX(config)# vlan 2

BigIron RX(config-vlan-2)# tag ethernet 1/1 to 1/2

BigIron RX(config-vlan-2)# metro-ring 1

BigIron RX(config-vlan-2-mrp-1)# name “MetroA”

BigIron RX(config-vlan-2-mrp-1)# master

BigIron RX(config-vlan-2-mrp-1)# ring-interface ethernet 1/1 ethernet 1/2

BigIron RX(config-vlan-2-mrp-1)# enable

BigIron RX(config-vlan-2-mrp-1)# exit

BigIron RX(config-vlan-2)# exit

The following commands configure the customer VLANs. The customer VLANs must contain both
the ring interfaces as well as the customer interfaces.

BigIron RX(config)# vlan 30

BigIron RX(config-vlan-30)# tag ethernet 1/1 to 1/2

BigIron RX(config-vlan-30)# tag ethernet 2/1

BigIron RX(config-vlan-30)# exit

BigIron RX(config)# vlan 40

BigIron RX(config-vlan-40)# tag ethernet 1/1 to 1/2

BigIron RX(config-vlan-40)# tag ethernet 4/1

BigIron RX(config-vlan-40)# exit

The following commands configure topology group 1 on VLAN 2. The master VLAN is the one that
contains the MRP configuration. The member VLANs use the MRP parameters of the master VLAN.
The control interfaces (the ones shared by the master VLAN and member VLAN) also share MRP
state.

BigIron RX(config)# topology-group 1

BigIron RX(config-topo-group-1)# master-vlan 2

BigIron RX(config-topo-group-1)# member-vlan 30

BigIron RX(config-topo-group-1)# member-vlan 40

Commands on switch B

The commands for configuring switches B, C, and D are similar to the commands for configuring
switch A, with two differences: the nodes are not configured to be the ring master. Omitting the
master command is required for non-master nodes.
