Scenario - 2: Configuring MRP

To configure MRP ring on device 1 (mrp-master) and device 2 (mrp-member) and MRP ring3 in the same VLAN between device 2 and device 3 (mrp-master), complete the following steps.
  1. Complete the MRP configuration (ring 2) between device 1 and device 2 as specified in Configuring Metro Ring Protocol..
  2. Add uplinks/p2p ports between device 2 and device 3 to the same VLAN (VLAN 2). 
    device(config-vlan-2)# tagged ethernet 1/2/3 ethernet 1/2/4
Added tagged port(s) ethe 1/2/3 to 1/2/4 to port-vlan 2.
  3. Configure MRP ring ID. 
    device(config-vlan-2)# metro-ring 3
    The prompt changes to MRP mode to define MRP parameters.
  4. Configure MRP ring interfaces. 
    device(config-vlan-2-mrp-3)# ring-interfaces ethernet 1/2/3 ethernet 1/2/4
  5. Enable MRP ring. 
    device(config-vlan-2-mrp-3)# enable
  6. Verify MRP configuration on device 2. 
    device(config-vlan-2)# show running-config vlan 2
vlan 2 by port
 tagged ethe 1/2/1 to 1/2/4 
 metro-ring 2
  ring-interfaces ethernet 1/2/2 ethernet 1/2/1
  enable
 metro-ring 3
  ring-interfaces ethernet 1/2/4 ethernet 1/2/3
  enable
!
!
device(config-vlan-2)#
  7. Configure VLAN on device 3. 
    device(config)# vlan 2
  8. Add ports to the VLAN. 
    device(config-vlan-2)# tagged ethernet 1/2/3 ethernet 1/2/4
Added tagged port(s) ethe 1/2/3 to 1/2/4 to port-vlan 2.
  9. Configure MRP ring ID. 
    device(config-vlan-2)# metro-ring 3
    The prompt changes to MRP mode to define MRP parameters.
  10. Configure MRP ring interfaces. 
    device(config-vlan-2-mrp-3)# ring-interfaces ethernet 1/2/3 ethernet 1/2/4
  11. Define the device as MRP ring Master. 
    device(config-vlan-2-mrp-3)# master
  12. Enable MRP ring. 
    device(config-vlan-2-mrp-3)# enable
  13. Enable MRP ring diagnostics. 
    device(config-vlan-2-mrp-2)# diagnostics
    MRP ring diagnostics can only be enabled on a Master node, otherwise the following error is displayed: "Error - Metro Ring diagnostics can only be enabled on ring Master."
  14. Verify MRP configuration on device 3. 
    device(config-vlan-2)# show running-config vlan 2
vlan 2 by port
 tagged ethe 1/2/3 to 1/2/4 
 metro-ring 3
  master
  ring-interfaces ethernet 1/2/3 ethernet 1/2/4
  enable
  diagnostics
