In addition to displaying the enabled/disabled state of ELRP, the command displays the total number 
of:

●

Clients registered with ELRP. 

●

ELRP packets transmitted. 

●

ELRP packets received. 

For more information about the output associated with the 

show elrp

 command, see the ExtremeWare 

XOS Command Reference Guide.

ESRP Examples

This section provides examples of ESRP configurations. 

Single Domain Using Layer 2 and Layer 3 Redundancy

The example shown in 

Figure 48

 uses a number of Extreme Networks devices as edge switches that 

perform Layer 2 switching for ESRP domain 

esrp1

 and VLAN 

Sales

. The edge switches are dual-homed 

to the BlackDiamond 10808 switches. The BlackDiamond 10808 switches perform Layer 2 switching 
between the edge switches and Layer 3 routing to the outside world. Each edge switch is dual-homed 
using active ports to two BlackDiamond 10808 switches. ESRP is enabled on each BlackDiamond 10808 
switch for the ESRP domain 

esrp1

 that interconnects to the edge switches. Each BlackDiamond 10808 

switch has the VLAN 

Sales

 configured using the identical IP address. The BlackDiamond 10808 switches 

then connect to the routed enterprise normally, using the desired routing protocol (for example, RIP or 
OSPF).
