Re: [RPRWG] RPR and 1+1 linear APS like configuration.





I thought 1+1 APS Linear is for point-to-point configuration not for ring
configuration as in RPR. You would need to take a look at Ring APS since
RPR's IPS is very similar to Ring APS. The difference is that Ring APS is a
layer 1 protocol and IPS is a layer 2 protocol. So the simple answer is
still a no.

Ajay,

RPR is a frame based technology.  Not sure what you have in mind in terms
of 1+1.  Could you please elaborate.  The simple answer seems to be no.

Thakns, Siamack

Hi All,    I have read few of the documents that are published/posted on
web and I have this very basic question regarding 802.17. Can RPR used to
implement something like 1+1 linear non-revertive APS equivalent. One
simple way is to look at it as a ring with two nodes and four links. If a
link breaks other link can be reused. Since I did not see this mentioned
specifically I was wondering if it is a possible configuration for
RPR. Thanks,vanshi
