Selecting ring port(s).
Each ring port must be unique, CANNOT be configured in different groups; 2 ring
ports between ring/chain CANNOT be the same.
# When role is ring/master, one ring port is forward port and another is block port.
The block port is redundant port; it is blocking port in normal state.
# When role is ring/slave, both ring ports are forward port.
# When role is coupling/primary, only need one ring port named primary port.
# When role is coupling/backup, only need one ring port named backup port. This
backup port is redundant port; it is blocking port in normal state.
# When role is dual-homing, one ring port is primary port and another is backup
port. This backup port is redundant port; it is blocking port in normal state.
# When role is chain/head, one ring port is member port and another is head port.
Both ring ports are forwarding port in normal state.
# When role is chain/tail, one ring port is member port and another is tail port. The
tail port is redundant port; it is blocking port in normal state.
# When role is chain/member, both ring ports are member port. Both ring ports are
forwarding port in normal state.
# When role is balancing-chain/central-block, one ring port is member port and
another is block port. The block port is redundant port; it is blocking port in normal
state.
# When role is balancing-chain/terminal-1/2, one ring port is member port and
another is terminal port. Both ring ports are forwarding port in normal state.
# When role is balancing-chain/member, both ring ports are member port. Both ring
ports are forwarding port in normal state.
