Determining the Redundant Path of a “Turbo Ring V2” Ring

Master

For a “Turbo Ring V2” ring, the backup

segment is the segment connected to the 2nd

redundant port on the master.

See Configuring “Turbo Ring V2” in the

Configuring “Turbo Ring” and “Turbo Ring

V2” section below.

Ring Coupling Configuration

For some systems, it may not be convenient to connect all devices in the system to create one BIG

redundant ring, since some devices could be located in a remote area. For these systems, “Ring

Coupling” can be used to separate the devices into different smaller redundant rings, but in such a

way that they can still communicate with each other.

ATTENTION

In a VLAN environment, the user must set “Redundant Port” “Coupling Port” and “Coupling

Control Port” to join all VLANs, since these ports act as the “backbone” to transmit all packets

of different VLANs to different EDS units.
