Meaning Theoutput displayed shows the ring interfacesge-2/0/4 and ge-2/0/8in protection
groupsring-1 and ring-2. For ring-1, VLAN 200 and VLAN 300 are being supportedon both
STPIndex 44 and 45 on bridge domains bd200 and bd300. For ring-2, VLAN 500 and
VLAN600 are being supported on both STP Index 46 and 47 on bridge domains bd500
andbd600. The data channel controls the traffic on the VLAN IDs tofacilitate load
balancing.
Verifyingthe Ethernet Protection Ring on AS1Purpose Verifythat ERP is enabled on AS1.
Action Showthe status of the ring APS (R-APS) messagesto determine if there is a ring failure:
user@as1> showprotection-group ethernet-ring aps
Ethernet Ring Name Request/state No Flush Ring Protection Originator Remote
Node ID
Link Blocked
Ring-1 NR No Yes No
00:21:59:03:ff:d0
Ring-2 NR No Yes No
13:22:af:31:fc:00
Meaning Theoutputdisplayed shows that protectiongroups ring-1 and ring-2 have a Request/state
ofNR, meaning there is no requestfor APS on the ring. If a Request/stateof SF is displayed,
itindicates there is a signal failure on the ring. The output alsoshows that the ring
protectionlink is not blocked. The NoFlush fielddisplays No, indicating that MAC
addresseswill be flushed when the ring nodes receive this messagefirst time. A value of
Yeswouldindicate MAC address flushing is not needed.The Originator field for ring-1 and
ring-2displays No, indicating that this node is not the R-APS originator.
Verifyingthe Data Channels on AS1Purpose Verifythe forwarding stateof the data channel.
Action Listthe interfaces acting as the controlchannels and their respective data channels
