This command sets the switch's MAC address to be used as the node
identifier in R-APS messages. Use the no form to use the node identifier
specified in the G8032 standards.

When ring nodes running ERPSv1 and ERPSv2 co-exist on the same
◆
ring, the Ring ID of each ring node must be configured as "1".
If this command is disabled, the following strings are used as the node
◆
identifier:
ERPSv1: 01-19-A7-00-00-01
■
ERPSv2: 01-19-A7-00-00-[Ring ID]

A sub-ring may be attached to a primary ring with or without a virtual
◆
channel. A virtual channel is used to connect two interconnection points
on the sub-ring, tunneling R-APS control messages across an arbitrary
Ethernet network topology. If a virtual channel is not used to cross the
intermediate Ethernet network, data in the traffic channel will still flow
across the network, but the all R-APS messages will be terminated at
the interconnection points.
