I have been trying to understand Cisco's Resilient Ethernet Protocol, but am unable to find a proper source to read from.

I checked the Cisco site and also their White Paper on REP. But none of them helped to understand REP clearly.

Googling was also of not much help, as all I got was explanation about configuration instructions and not on the protocol itself.

Can you guys point me to a good book or site, which explains Resilient Ethernet Protocol in detail?

Thanks in advance.
