Configuring EPSR
EPSR can be configured in many ways ranging from the simple example
shown below, through to complex rings with extended lobes running either
EPSR or spanning tree protocols.
Single Domain, Single Ring Network
This example shows a very simple single ring, single domain configuration
with no connecting lobes.
