30.1.11 Transmission setting of flush control frame for neighboring ring ring

The figure below shows a configuration in which both ring ports of the master node are shared links. For such configurations, set the master node of a shared link non-monitoring ring to send flush control frames for neighboring rings.

Figure 30-5: Configuration in which both ring ports of the master node are shared links

Points to note

In a multi-ring configuration with a shared link in which both ring ports of the master node are shared links (device 3 of ring 1) as shown in Figure 30-5: Configuration where both ring ports of the master node are shared links, set the flash control frame for the neighboring to be transmitted on the master node of the shared link non-monitoring ring (device 1 of ring 2).

At that point, also bind a VLAN, which is used to send flush control frames for neighboring rings, to VLAN mapping on each node of sending-destination rings.

Do not use this VLAN for data transfer and use it only for sending flush control frames for neighboring rings.

Command examples

(config)# axrp 2

(config-axrp)# flush-request-transmit vlan 10

Enters configuration mode for ring ID 2 (master node of a shared link non-monitoring ring) and sets it to send flush control frames for neighboring rings to VLAN ID 10 when a fault or recovery occurs on ring ID 2.
