Usage
For a G.8032 ERP instance, a VLAN is used as a channel for carrying an R-APS
message. This VLAN is also used to identify the proper ring instance to all the other
nodes in the ring.
The VLAN must be tagged members of the G.8032 physical ring instance
associated with this ERP instance. A G.8032 physical ring instance must be
associated with this ERP instance. The ERP instance can not be enabled until this
raps-channel VLAN has been configured properly.
The ERP instance must be disabled when using the
no
variant.
Example
To configure a VLAN with a VLAN-id of “103” as a R-APS channel for an ERP instance
named “blue”, use the following commands:
awplus(config)#
g8032 erp-instance blue
awplus(g8032-config-switch)#
raps-channel 103
