an RPL owner. The ring-1 RPL owner is CS1; the ring-2 RPL owner is CS2. The RPL owners
block or unblock the RPL as conditions require and initiate R-APS messages.
Each ring instance has two interface ports (an east interface and a west interface) that
participate in the instance. Interface ge-2/0/8.0, the west interface on CS2, is the ring
protection linkend wherering-2’sRPL terminates.Interfacege-3/2/4.0,the east interface
on CS1, is the ring protection link end where ring-1’s RPL terminates.
Each ring instance has a data channel. A data channel is a group of bridge domain virtual
LAN (VLAN) IDs. All VLAN IDs within the same ring interface share the same
data-forwarding properties controlled by the ERP. The data channel on ring-1 is [200,
300]. The data channel on ring-2 is [500, 600].
Two customer site switches are connected to AS1. Customer site 1 uses VLANs 200 and
300. Customer site 2 uses VLANs 500 and 600.
