Hi again,

I have a new scenario.

Today we have this link between BD and "A" and a eaps ring. (A-B-C-D-E-F-G-H-I-J-A) "A" is the master.

Is it possible to pass this new link between BD and "D"? (the red one)

I think that i will need to make another EAPS:
(D-BD-A-B-C-D) "D" should be the master of this eaps.

and a third ring will be needed? (BD-D-E-F-G-H-I-J-A-BD) with BD as master?

Hi,

Romain's suggestion above looks best and simple way to deploy your topology.

If you want to deploy two EAPS ring, please refer the "EAPS Multiple Ring Topology" section in the EXOS user guide.

Hi,

What if you define the "red" port on the BD as a redundant port of the "black" port ?
The BD will switch on the redundant if the primary link goes down.
No trafic will pass through the red port if the black port is UP.

Hi gbs,

You can refer following "Software-Controlled Redundant Ports (SRP)" section in EXOS user guide:
