how to delete vlan from existing eaps domain

[lovedeep]

Hi All,

We have a vlan that doesn't need to be protected by EAPS anymore. So I am looking for a step-by-step procedure to delete vlan from EAPS domain without causing any outages.
Thank You

Thanks Chris. I will try to keep it simple by disabling the eaps globally, so the rollback (enable eaps) is easy just in case if we have to.

Hi LD,

If you first physically break the ring, so there is no chance for a physical loop, you can disable EAPS and/or remove the protected VLANs as you wish.
The order doesn't really matter in this case as long as the link is first disabled/removed.

Disabling EAPS globally (= all EAPS rings you may have) simply uses the command "disable eaps" on all switches.

cheers,
Chris

Many thanks Chris, Hagemann and Christina for sharing all the information. Moving forward if we take off the link between core 2 and 4 then can I disable eaps on all four core switches? or do I have to delete vlans first from eaps domain before disabling eaps? Also , are there any steps that I have to follow to disable eaps?

Thanks,
LD
