A Member VLAN that spans both rings is added as aMember VLAN to both FRRP groups. Switch R3 has two instances of FRRP running on it: one for eachring. The example topology that follows shows R3 assuming the role of a Transit node for both FRRP 101and FRRP 202.Figure 15-2. Example of Multiple Rings Connected by Single SwitchImportant FRRP PointsFRRP provides a convergence time that can generally range between 150ms and 1500ms. The Master nodeoriginates a high-speed frame that circulates around the ring. This frame, appropriately, sets up or breaksdown the ring.• A single FRRP flap will occur wen a line card is reset or a stack unit fails over to the standby.PrimaryForwardingPrimaryForwardingSecondaryForwardingPrimaryForwardingSecondaryBlockingSecondaryForwardingTRANSITR2TRANSITR3FRRP 101MASTERR1TRANSITR3PrimaryForwardingPrimaryForwardingPrimaryForwardingPrimaryForwardingPrimaryForwardingSecondaryForwardingSecondaryForwardingSecondaryForwardingSecondaryForwardingSecondaryBlockingFRRP 202MASTERR5Ring 202DirectionTRANSITR4TRANSITR6TRANSITR7Ring 101Direction
