Hi,

Not sure what vendor you are using for your ERP, but most 3rd part switch vendors can work with Cisco switches with no issues.

HTH

thanks for Reply,

 

your are right, but if ERP is not supported on Cisco switches, how thirdparty ERP ring control loops while uplink to cisco  Distribution Switch. Cisco Supports RSTP/MSTP and thirdpary vendor is using ERP. Intermediate  device should undertstand  ERP to control Loop.
