Intersecting-ring load balancing
In an intersecting-ring network, you can also achieve load balancing by configuring multiple domains.
As shown in
, Ring 1 is the primary ring and Ring 2 is the subring in both Domain 1 and
Domain 2. Domain 1 and Domain 2 are configured with different protected VLANs. Device A is
configured as the master node of Ring 1 in Domain 1; Device D is configured as the master node of
Ring 1 in Domain 2. Device E is configured as the master node of Ring 2 in both Domain 1 and Domain
2. However, different ports on Device E are blocked in Domain 1 and Domain 2. With the configurations,
you can enable traffic of different VLANs to travel over different paths in the subring and primary ring,
thus achieving intersecting-ring load balancing.

RRPP.
RRPP Configuration Task List
You can create RRPP domains based on service planning, specify control VLANs and data VLANs for
each RRPP domain, and then determine the ring roles and node roles based on the traffic paths in each
RRPP domain.
