Creating and Configuring the EAPS Domain

The first step in the migration process is to create an EAPS (Extreme Automatic Protection Switching) Domain and configure the EAPS mode, then define the primary and secondary ports for the domain. Follow this step for both switches. Switch2 is configured as EAPS Master to ensure the same port blocking state is maintained as in the original STP (Spanning Tree Protocol) topology.

Switch 1 EAPS domain configuration:

* SWITCH#1.1 # create eaps new-eaps
* SWITCH#1.2 # configure new-eaps mode transit
* SWITCH#1.3 # configure new-eaps primary port 4:1
* SWITCH#1.4 # configure new-eaps secondary port 4:2

Switch 2 EAPS domain configuration:

* SWITCH#2.1 # create eaps new-eaps
* SWITCH#2.2 # configure new-eaps mode master
* SWITCH#2.3 # configure new-eaps primary port 4:1
* SWITCH#2.4 # configure new-eaps secondary port 4:2
