ERPS Settings

ERPS (Ethernet Ring Protection Switching) is the first industry standard (ITU-T G.8032) for Ethernet ring protection
switching. It is achieved by integrating mature Ethernet operations, administration, and maintenance (OAM) *
functions and a simple automatic protection switching (APS) protocol for Ethernet ring networks. ERPS provides
sub-50ms protection for Ethernet traffic in a ring topology. It ensures that there are no loops formed at the Ethernet
layer.
