Do you really need something faster than one of the spanning tree
variants?
The topology at Montana Internet is to have a layer 3 switch at each
site and a big flat rapid spanning tree ring for all of the OSPF
speaking layer 3 switches (Aka routers) to talk on. If I yank a ring
cable, I lose about a second on two is all.

Looking to add Ethernet ring protection switching into our
network. I've attached a PDF demonstrating the topology of the

simply because it's ITU standards based and not vendor specific.
Other options include Brocade MRP, Moxa Turbo Chain, etc. Any
shared wisdom would be greatly appreciate before we get ourselves
