Metro Ring Protocol

The following commands configure the customer VLANs. The customer VLANs must contain both

the ring interfaces as well as the customer interfaces.

Brocade(config)#vlan 30

Brocade(config-vlan-30)#tag ethernet 1/1 to 1/2

Brocade(config-vlan-30)#tag ethernet 2/1

Brocade(config-vlan-30)#exit

Brocade(config)#vlan 40

Brocade(config-vlan-40)#tag ethernet 1/1 to 1/2

Brocade(config-vlan-40)#tag ethernet 4/1

Brocade(config-vlan-40)#exit

The following commands configure topology group 1 on VLAN 2. The master VLAN is the one that

contains the MRP configuration. The member VLANs use the MRP parameters of the master VLAN.

The control interfaces (the ones shared by the master VLAN and member VLAN) also share MRP

state.

Brocade(config)#topology-group 1

Brocade(config-topo-group-1)#master-vlan 2

Brocade(config-topo-group-1)#member-vlan 30

Brocade(config-topo-group-1)#member-vlan 40

MRP commands on Switch B

The commands for configuring Switches B, C, and D are similar to the commands for configuring

Switch A, with two differences: the nodes are not configured to be the ring master. Omitting the

master command is required for non-master nodes.

Brocade(config)#vlan 2

Brocade(config-vlan-2)#tag ethernet 1/1 to 1/2

Brocade(config-vlan-2)#metro-ring 1

Brocade(config-vlan-2-mrp-1)#name “Metro A”

Brocade(config-vlan-2-mrp-1)#ring-interface ethernet 1/1 ethernet 1/2

Brocade(config-vlan-2-mrp-1)#enable

Brocade(config-vlan-2)#exit
