[j-nsp] Ethernet Rings - ERPS - ITU G.8032

[Rolf Mendelsohn]

Hi Everybody,

Does anybody know if/when the EX Series will support this standard?

If it will not happen, or will not happen soon. Then what are others using to build redundant Rings on EX Series.
MST just doesn't really work & the MPLS features seem so limited that everything has to be manually configured.

We have a Metro ring, which will soon have 20 Nodes & 400M Ceragon links from Node to Node.

The Ceragon switch features do support G. 8032, but I would prefer doing this on really routing/switching gear.

cheers
