GMRP STATE MACHINE
The following image shows the GMRP state machine page. Users can view the GMRP state machine
information here.
EAPS CONFIGURATION
Ethernet Automatic Protection Switching (EAPS) is used to create a fault tolerant topology by conguring
a primary and secondary path for each VLAN. A ring is formed by conguring a Domain. Each domain has
a single “master node” and many “transit nodes”. Each node will have a primary port and a secondary port,
both known to be able to send control trac to the master node. Under normal operation, the secondary
port on the master is blocked for all protected VLANs. When a link is down, the devices that detect the failure
send a control message to the master, and the master will then unblock the secondary port and instruct the
transits to ush their forwarding databases. The next packets sent by the network can then be ooded and
learned out of the (now enabled) secondary port without any network disruption.
The same switch can belong to multiple domains and thus multiple rings. However, these act as
independent entities and can be controlled individually.
EAPS CONFIGURATION
The image on the next page shows an EAPS configuration page, through which you can configure some EAPS
related information, including:
• Select an EAPS ring number.
• Congure the operating node mode of an EAPS Domain.
• Congure Primary Port of EAPS Domain.
• Congure Secondary Port of EAPS Domain.
• Congure a control VLAN for EAPS Domain.
• Add one or more protected VLANs of the EAPS Domain.
• Congure an EAPS Domain to periodically send HEALTH packets. Hello-timer must be less than fail-time.
• Set the fail-period timer of one EAPS domain to expire.
• Enable or disable compatibility with Extreme devices.
• Whether to enable
