Re: Ring numbers in SRB

If you have other devices on the same TrCRF, say PC's that you want to
reach, then you want to match the TrCRF ring number with the local ring
number on the router. The bridge number can be any number 1-F and does not
need to match the TrBRF number. The ring numbers on the 3920 switch are
always in hex. Ring numbers on the router are displayed in decimal but can
be entered in hex.

For instance, if my TrBRF bridge is F, the default, and my TrCRF
ring number is 0x100, the connected router config, for DLSW, would be:

source-bridge ring-group 200
(dlsw local and remote peer commands)

int tok 0
ring 16
source-bridge 0x100 1 200 (displayed as 256 1 200)
source-bridge spanning

If there is a second router (dlsw peer) that router could be configured with
the exact same ring /bridge numbers although I don't recommend it as a
general practice. Since DLSW terminates the RIF you can have duplicate ring
numbers. For SRB or RSRB this isn't true.

For the example in another post,
PC-3920VLAN1-R1--DLSW--R2--3920VLAN2--PC
with VLAN 1 ring 0x10, bridge 5
        VLAN 2 ring 0x20, bridge 7

The configs would be:
        R1 R2
sou ring-group 200 sou ring-group 200
dlsw local peer <r1 add> dlsw local peer <r2 add> prom
dlsw remote 0 tcp <r2 add>

int tok 0 int tok 0
ring 16 ring 16
source-bridge 16 1 200 source-bridge 32 1 200
source-bridge spanning source-bridge spanning

Hope this helps,
Fred
