Ethernet Protection Switching Ring (EPSR) 9
Single Ring, Dual Domain Network
This example shows a slightly more complex EPSR configuration where two
EPSR domains share the same physical ring. This configuration enables two
sets of users to run totally separate layer two networks. Better load distribution
around the ring can be achieved by configuring different nodes to be the
master for each ring.

Example commands to configure the single ring, dual domain network are
shown in Figure 1-6 on page 1-10, Figure 1-7 on page 1-11, and Figure 1-8 on
page 1-12.
