Example for Configuring Intersecting RRPP Rings with a Single Instance When Huawei Devices and Third-Party Devices Are Used
Networking Requirements
Ethernet network uses two-layer rings: one is the aggregation layer between aggregation devices PE-AGGs and the other is the access layer between PE-AGGs and UPEs.
As shown in Figure 18-33, the network is required to prevent loops when the ring is complete and implement fast convergence to rapidly restore communication between nodes on the ring when the ring fails. RRPP can meet this requirement. RRPP supports multiple rings. You can configure the aggregation layer as the major ring and the access layer as the sub-ring, simplifying the network configuration. To enable devices from different vendors to communicate with each other on the network, you can use the RRPP version defined by the national standard of China.
As shown in Figure 18-34, SwitchB, SwitchA, SwitchD, and SwitchC map PE-AGG1, PE-AGG2, PE-AGG3, and UPE1 in Figure 18-33 respectively. Figure 18-34 is used as an example to describe how to configure intersecting RRPP rings with a single instance in the RRPP version defined by national standard of China.
Configuration Roadmap
The configuration roadmap is as follows:
Configure interfaces to be added to the RRPP domain on the devices so that data can pass through the interfaces. Disable protocols that conflict with RRPP, such as STP.
Create an RRPP domain and its control VLAN.
Map the VLANs that needs to pass through the RRPP ring to Instance 1, including data VLANs 2 to 9 and control VLANs 10 and 11 (VLAN 11 is the sub-control VLAN generated by the device).
Configure the devices to use the RRPP version defined by the national standard of China.
- Configure a protected VLAN and create an RRPP ring in the RRPP
domain.
Configure Ring 1 (major ring) in RRPP Domain 1 on SwitchA, SwitchB, and SwitchD.
Configure Ring 2 (sub-ring) in RRPP Domain 1 on SwitchA, SwitchC, and SwitchD.
Configure SwitchB as the master node on the major ring and configure SwitchA and SwitchD as transit nodes on the major ring.
Configure SwitchC as the master node on the sub-ring and configure SwitchA and SwitchD as edge transit nodes on the sub-ring.
Enable the RRPP ring and RRPP protocol on devices to make RRPP take effect.
Procedure
- Configure SwitchB as the master node on the major ring.
