Abstract
Description
Technical field
[0001] The present invention relates to the Ethernet Automatic Protection System (EAPS) technology, in particular to a method for backing up a primary site on an EAPS ring and a backup site. Background technique
[0002] The EAPS ring is a ring network structure composed of a master site and multiple slave sites. figure 1 It is a schematic diagram of the structure of the EAPS ring. See figure 1 When the EAPS ring is working normally, the primary site blocks the spare physical port on its own side to ensure that the EAPS ring is a chain instead of a ring when transmitting business data, thereby avoiding unknown unicast and broadcast in the ring network The next loop broadcast occurs to avoid broadcast storms.
[0003] At present, in order to ensure that the EAPS ring can work normally when the primary site fails or recovers from the failure, a method of using the standby site to back up the primary site is proposed. figure 2 It is a flow chart of backup for the ...
