Configuring Ethernet Ring Protection Switching
The inheritance model follows:
protection-group {ethernet-ring ring-name {east-interface {control-channel channel-name {vlan number;}}guard-interval number;node-id mac-address;restore-interval number;ring-protection-link-owner;west-interface {control-channel channel-name {vlan number;}}}}
For each ring, a protection group must be configured. There may be several rings in each node, so there should be multiple protection groups corresponding to the related Ethernet rings.
Three interval parameters (restore-interval, guard-interval, and hold-interval) can be configured at the protection group level. These configurations are global configurations and apply to all Ethernet rings if the Ethernet ring doesn't have a more specific configuration for these values. If no parameter is configured at the protection group level, the global configuration of this parameter uses the default value.
