Research of Ethernet Ring Protection Technology

Abstract:

Ethernet ring networks are used widely recently, and the research on the ring protection switching is carried out. Spanning Tree Protocol (STP) was the first technology to control ring networks to avoid the storm. Rapid Spanning Tree Protocol (RSTP) is an upgraded version of STP[1]. RSTP can provide shorter convergence time than STP. Ethernet Automatic Protection switching (EAPS) is designed for a single ring topology [2]. The convergence time of EAPS is below 50ms and EAPS can meet the real-time requirements and high-reliability requirements of network services.G.8032 is a standardized scheme for achieving sub-50ms service protection in ring topologies which is recommended by ITU-T[3]. This paper intelligent Ethernet ring protection technologes about Spanning Tree Protocol, RFC3619 and G.8032 .These technologies appear in different times, and have their advantages and disadvantages. This article outlines these Ethernet ring protection switching technology and explains their basal principles.
