Creating and Configuring the Backbone EAPS Control VLAN

  1. Create the EAPS control VLAN and configure its 802.1q tag, and ring ports.
  2. Configure the control VLANs as part of the backbone EAPS domain. Enable EAPS and the backbone EAPS domain. Configure on both core and aggregation switches (EAPS is already enabled on aggregation switches).

    Core-Switch#1 control VLAN configuration:

    * CORE-SWITCH#1.1 # create vlan control-5
    * CORE-SWITCH#1.2 # configure vlan control-5 tag 4005
    * CORE-SWITCH#1.4 # configure vlan control-5 add port 2:1,2:4 tagged
    * CORE-SWITCH#1.5 # configure eaps e5-domain add control vlan control-5
    * CORE-SWITCH#1.6 # enable eaps
    * CORE-SWITCH#1.7 # enable eaps e5-domain

    Core-Switch#2 control VLAN configuration:

    * CORE-SWITCH#2.1 # create vlan control-5
    * CORE-SWITCH#2.2 # configure vlan control-5 tag 4005
    * CORE-SWITCH#2.4 # configure vlan control-5 add port 2:1,2:4 tagged
    * CORE-SWITCH#2.5 # configure eaps e5-domain add control vlan control-5
    * CORE-SWITCH#2.6 # enable eaps
    * CORE-SWITCH#2.7 # enable eaps e5-domain

    Agg-Switch#1 control VLAN configuration:

    * AGG-SWITCH#1.1 # create vlan control-5
    * AGG-SWITCH#1.2 # configure vlan control-5 tag 4005
    * AGG-SWITCH#1.4 # configure vlan control-5 add port 2:4,2:6 tagged
    * AGG-SWITCH#1.5 # configure eaps e5-domain add control vlan control-5
    * AGG-SWITCH#1.6 # enable eaps e5-domain
    

    Agg-Switch#2 control VLAN configuration:

    * AGG-SWITCH#2.1 # create vlan control-5
    * AGG-SWITCH#2.2 # configure vlan control-5 tag 4005
    * AGG-SWITCH#2.4 # configure vlan control-5 add port 2:4,2:6 tagged
    * AGG-SWITCH#2.5 # configure eaps e5-domain add control vlan control-5
    * AGG-SWITCH#1.6 # enable eaps e5-domain
