8.5 Configuring SEP
This section describes the SEP configuration.
8.5.1 Configuring Basic SEP Functions
When there is no faulty link on a ring network running SEP, SEP can eliminate loops on the
Ethernet. When a link fault occurs on the ring network, SEP can immediately restore the
communication between the nodes on the network.
Pre-configuration Tasks
Before configuring basic SEP functions, complete the following tasks:

Description
In some cases, however, the
negotiated blocked interface
may not be the required one.
You can specify an interface
to block according to
network requirements.
To implement load balancing
and make efficient use of
bandwidth, protected
instances need to be deployed
on a SEP network and
mapped to VLANs.
A SEP network usually needs
to work together with another
network running other
features. To ensure network
reliability, if the topology of
one network changes, the
other network must be able to
detect the topology change
and take measures to ensure
reliable data transmission.
Therefore, the topology
change notification function
needs to be enabled on the
SEP network.
