Licensing Requirements and Limitations for RRPP
Involved Network Elements
Other network elements are not required.
Licensing Requirements
RRPP is a basic feature of a switch and is not under license control.
RRPP snooping can be only used on the device enabled with MPLS. MPLS requires a license. By default, MPLS of a newly purchased device is disabled. To use MPLS, apply for and purchase the license from the equipment supplier.

Feature Limitations
- SA series cards do not support RRPP snooping.
- Switch XGE interfaces connected to the ET1D2IPS0S00, ET1D2FW00S00, ET1D2FW00S01, ET1D2FW00S02, and ACU2 cards do not support RRPP snooping.
When you configure the list of protected VLANs, note the following points:
Protected VLANs must be configured before you configure an RRPP ring.
You can delete or change existing protected VLANs before configuring an RRPP ring. The protected VLANs cannot be changed after the RRPP ring is configured.
In the same physical topology, the control VLAN in a domain cannot be configured as a protected VLAN in another domain.
The control VLAN must be included in the protected VLANs; otherwise, the RRPP ring cannot be configured.
The control VLAN can be mapped to other instances before the RRPP ring is created. After the RRPP ring is created, the mapping cannot be changed unless you delete the RRPP ring.
When the mapping between instances and VLANs changes, the protected VLANs in the RRPP domain also change.
All the VLANs allowed by an RRPP interface must be configured as protected VLANs.
