VLAN rSTP

Sat Oct 08, 2016 2:11 am

Hello -

I've got a setup in which I have a main link and a backup link coming into port 1 and 2 on a CCR1009. The other end of the link has an Ignitenet switch with RB260GS units on the SFP ports, as well as the main and backup links on the ethernet ports. The RB260GS units are set up to have management on VLAN 2 and customer data on VLAN 4. The Ignitenet switch is just passing these through and I then interact with the VLANs on the CCR. I'm trying to figure out how to get rSTP to work for failover with this setup. With VLANs directly on the CCR ethernet ports, I am unable to get it working. I've tried adding the two ethernet ports on the CCR directly into a bridge and then adding the VLANs into the same bridge, but this does not allow me to put the DHCP server for the customers on the VLAN - instead I have to put it on the bridge between the VLAN and the ethernet port, which I don't believe will work.

Any ideas on the best way to go about getting this to work?

TIA
