MAGNUM 6K SWITCHES, MNS-6K USER GUIDE

Using the Magnum edge switch with dual-homing allows the edge devices
to have link level redundancy as well – bringing the fault tolerance from
the network to the edge.
F
IGURE 103 – LACP, along with RSTP/STP brings redundancy to the network core or backbone.
Using this reliable core with a dual-homed edge switch brings reliability and redundancy to the edge of the
network
It is recommended not to use LACP with S-Ring at this time.
Since S-Ring and LACP use the same BPDUs (called LACPDUs), the architecture shown
below is not supported in this release.
