Alain,
passive mode is much better tested. Another big plus of passive is, that
if one network becomes faulty, passive makes progress (one packet is
send thru active device, another via faulty - this is not delivered but
resend via active device, ...). Active RRP waits until enough failures
and then marks device/ring failed. In this meantime, there is no
progress (packet must be delivered via both interfaces).

Passive. It's only one supported.
