Configuring Ethernet Ring Protection Switching

The inheritance model follows:

protection-group {ethernet-ring ring-name (node-id mac-address;ring-protection-link-owner;east-interface {control-channel channel-name {ring-protection-link-end;}west-interface {node-id mac-address;control-channel channel-name {ring-protection-link-end;}data-channel {vlan number;}guard-interval number;restore-interval number;}}

For each ring, a protection group must be configured. There may be several rings in each node, so there should be multiple protection groups corresponding to the related Ethernet rings.

Three interval parameters (restore-interval, guard-interval, and hold-interval) can be configured at the protection group level. These configurations are global configurations and apply to all Ethernet rings if the Ethernet ring doesn't have a more specific configuration for these values. If no parameter is configured at the protection group level, the global configuration of this parameter uses the default value.
