69Specifying an assistant-edge nodeWhen configuring an assistant-edge node, you must first configure the primary ring before configuringthe subrings.Perform this configuration on a device to be configured as an assistant-edge node.Follow these steps to specify an assistant-edge node:To do… Use the command… RemarksEnter system view system-view —Enter RRPP domain view rrpp domain domain-id —Specify the current device as atransit node of the primary ring,and specify the primary port andthe secondary portring ring-id node-mode transit[ primary-port interface-typeinterface-number ] [ secondary-portinterface-type interface-number ]level level-valueRequiredSpecify the current device as theassistant-edge node of the subring,and specify an edge portring ring-id node-modeassistant-edge [ edge-portinterface-type interface-number ]RequiredActivating an RRPP domainTo activate an RRPP domain on the current device, enable the RRPP protocol and RRPP rings for the RRPPdomain on the current device.Perform this operation on all nodes in the RRPP domain.Follow these steps to activate an RRPP domain:To do… Use the command… RemarksEnter system view system-view —Enable RRPP rrpp enable RequiredDisabled by defaultEnter RRPP domain view rrpp domain domain-id —Enable the specified RRPP ring ring ring-id enable RequiredDisabled by defaultCAUTION:To prevent Hello packets of subrings from being looped on the primary ring, enable the primary ring onits master node before enabling the subrings on their separate master nodes. On an edge node orassistant-edge node, enable/disable the primary ring and subrings separately:• Enable the primary ring of an RRPP domain before enabling the subrings of the RRPP domain.• Disable the primary ring of an RRPP domain after disabling all subrings of the RRPP domain.Configuring RRPP timers
