Hello,
We have SDH network consisting in a STM16 ring with 7 ONS15454 MSPP nodes, sw version 9.0.1. In each node we have a ML1000-2 card connected in a RPR configuration through VC4-8C(8x155Mbs) circuits.
My questions:
Q1 We had expected the ring to balance itself but instead 90% of the traffic is going anti-clockwise which is the direction of the POS-0.
Q2 We are not able to transmit Multicast packets and we sometimes have problems with udp losses. Could this be due to a bad configuration of the ML-1000? Should we investigate higher in the core switches(6500’s)?
Thanks
