ok, .. there are multiple vlans configured, but primarily they are all in mgmt vlan 1. i have now activated loop guard (just in case) on second switch port to mx, and it now shows "blocked" on that port, which is ok i think. i also assume now, that if the first switch goes down, the second port gets unblocked automatically? In port configuration, the switch also recognized that it is connected to MX. (cdp/lldp), but is not recognized as uplink. Usually i assume, (i have rtsp enabled on all ports), that the mx+switch configuration finds out that there is a ring and it uses both ports to communicate with the mx, or am i wrong with my knowledge? all ports an congured as trunk, and there is no other port configured with bdpu or loop guard. they also have access to all vlans (but default is vlan 1).
