RPR master/subordinate port
The first RPR physical port bound to the RPR logical interface is the master port, and the second
RPR physical port bound to the RPR logical interface is the subordinate port.
All calculation concerning the operation of RPR is done on the master port, and the calculation result
is synchronized to the subordinate port for consistency. Examples of RPR-related calculation include
execution of configuration commands, protection event processing, and RPR frames sending for
topology discovery.
When the master port fails or leaves the binding with the RPR logical interface, the subordinate port
takes over as the master port.

Protocols and standards

The RPR implementation follows the following document:
IEEE802.17: Resilient packet ring (RPR) access method and physical layer specifications
