Resilient Ethernet Protocol
(REP)
(REP)
Support for REP, a Cisco proprietary protocol that provides an
alternative to Spanning Tree Protocol (STP) to control network loops,
handle link failures, and improve convergence time in ring topologies.
REP controls a group of ports connected in a segment, ensures that the
segment does not create any bridging loops, and responds to link failures
within the segment. REP also supports VLAN load balancing.
