I've been studying the exact same question lately.
At the moment I lean towards ERPS only because it seems simpler to
configure. :)

No. Going to do this on Calix E7-2s - We already have some of them in
place, we pay Calix for support and software anyway, and the GPON-4
cards have 4 10G ports on them so we don't need to change much or
spare something new. If we were just going to do this, I'd probably
try FS just to avoid having to pay for software/support.

Carl,
Are you using FS.com switches?

After moving most of our network over to VPLS, I'm working on
pushing 10G further into the network. It doesn't make a lot of
sense to do this with routers (cost & power) and since we use a
lot of Calix gear for our GPON and already have some of it in
place it makes sense to me to just set up a 10G ring and hang
routers off of that where we need them. A couple of the legs are
going to be wireless 10G links for now so I'm looking for
feedback on G.8032v2 vs ERPS rings with wireless paths.
Going to be running ~20-30 Service VLANs with multiple CVLANS and
20-30 other single tagged VLANs over the ring (router to router,
dedicated links, etc). The only drawback I see is the inability
to do traffic engineering the way we an with MPLS VPLS but I'll
still have that with the transport to the core ring.
Any gotchas I should look for? Issues with wireless? benefits
of one vs the other?
