ULPP Configuration
516
enabled, this topology forms a ring. For avoiding the loopback, SwitchA can configure
ULPP protocol, the master port and the slave port of ULPP group. When both master port
and slave port are up, the slave port will be set as standby state and will not forward the
data packets. When the master port is down, the slave port will be set as forwarding state
and switch to the uplink. SwitchB and SwitchC can enable the command that receives the
flush packets, it is used to associate with ULPP protocol running of SwitchA to switch the
uplink immediately and reduce the switch delay.
When configuring ULPP protocol of SwitchA, first, create a ULPP group and configure
the protection VLAN of this group as vlan10, then configure interface Ethernet 1/0/1 as the
master port, interface Ethernet 1/0/2 as the slave port, the control VLAN as 10. SwitchB
and SwitchC configure the flush packets that receive ULPP.
