Configuring the VLAN mappings

(config)# axrp vlan-mapping 1 vlan 101-105

(config)# axrp vlan-mapping 2 vlan 106-110

Adds VLAN101 through VLAN105 to vlan-mapping 1 for the ring.

Adds VLAN106 through VLAN110 to vlan-mapping 2 for the ring.

Configuring the ring

(config)# axrp 1

(config-axrp)# mode transit

(config-axrp)# control-vlan 2

(config-axrp)# vlan-group 1 vlan-mapping 1

(config-axrp)# vlan-group 2 vlan-mapping 2

Sets RING ID to 1.

Sets the mode to transit because this node is a transit node.

Specifies VLAN2 as the control VLAN.

Assigns vlan-mapping 1 to vlan-group 1.

3.2 Multi-ring application for a campus network

You can use the ALAXALA Ring Protocol to form a system like a campus network, in which networks in

buildings are interconnected through the local area backbone network. In this case, configure a network system

as a combination of multiple rings. This section provides an example of such a network.

Figure 3.2-1 Example of a campus network

To set up a multi-ring configuration of the Ring Protocol shown in the figure above, you can use

configurations as described in 2.1 (2) Multi-ring configuration without shared links

or 2.1 (3) Multi-ring

configurations with shared links.

This section gives a configuration example of the VLAN-shared multi-ring configuration with shared links.
