Ethernet Ring Protection Switch (ERPS) is an Ethernet ring protection protocol which is used to
prevent forming the loop in LAN, thus, the Broadcast Storm problem could be avoided. The loop
avoidance mechanism ensures the traffic flows on all but the RPL ring link. In order to achieve the
loop-avoidance mechanism, ITU-
T G.8032 defines three roles in ERPS, which are “RPL Owner
Node”, “RPL Neighbor Node”, and “None Node”.
Below are two scenarios describing how to configure the ERPS in Antaira’s industrial managed
Ethernet switches. Users can reference it to configure the managed switch as RPL-configured
architecture as shown in Figure 5.27 or the non-configured architecture shown in Figure 5.31.
