Hi Marcin,

EAPS Common link Controller/Partner must be point-to-point with no
intermediate switch. Depending on your requirements, platforms, EXOS
version, you may take a look at G.8032 that may have different limitations
than EAPS in this case.

Ok, finally I found a slot to make attached picture.
How do you think - is it possible to do it with EAPS ?

RED, GREEN and BLUE are supposed to be 3 EAPS domains.

Regards,
Marcin

Yes, it is possible.
There is one "but" - switch, which belongs to both shared-ports (RGB + RB)
can be a Master only for Green EAPS. This is because "A shared port cannot
be configured on an EAPS master’s secondary port."

ok, so as I'am not planning any master on shared link, there is no
problem in my case.

How would then Partner/Controller config look like ? Controller in the
middle ?

Marcin

Since:
1. The shared port mode configured on each side of a common link must be
different from the other;
one must be a controller and one must be a partner.
2. There cannot be more than one controller on a switch.
Valid combinations on any one switch are:
- 1 partner;
- 1 controller and 1 partner;
- 1 controller;
- 2 partners.

so you can't have two controllers in the middle.
