The status is Idle, which means that the ring is up and fully connected with the RPL port blocked is not what the specified status means for Ethernet Ring Protection Switching (ERPS) on an ArubaOS-CX switch. Idle is one of the possible statuses for an ERPS ring instance, but it indicates that the ring is not operational and no port is blocked. This can happen when the ring is not configured properly or when there is a miscommunication between the nodes1.
