What is Your redundancy protocol that You are using now between Your
extreme switches?

That would probably depend upon what mechanism you're using for
redundancy. If it's a proprietary ring protocol such as EAPS, your
migration might take a little bit more planning.

Best,

I saw extreme configuration, and i didn't found redundancy configuration between two switches. I have guess that the redundancy controlled by PE router because there are twin PE routers too.
I just found that 2 ports at SW1 connect to 2 ports at SW2
Here the simple topology

PE ROUTER1 PE ROUTER2
| |
| |
SW1 --------------SW2

# Load Sharing Configuration
enable sharing Y:XX grouping Y:XX,Y:XX algorithm port-based
configure lacp keep-alive 10

thx

Who manages the PE routers?
Are the links between PE1-SW1 and PE2-SW2 L2 or L3?

It doesn't look like there are any loops that would cause problems in
the migration, but just trying to clarify the PE-topology a bit more
(how do PE1 and PE2 communicate?)

no L2 loops in topology points to a relatively more predictable, less
intrusive migration.
