Industrial Secure Router User's Manual Network Redundancy
Configuring Turbo Ring V2
-Ring architecture,
users must configure settings for both Ring 1 and Ring 2. In this case,
the status of both rings will appear under “Current Status.”
Explanation of “Current Status” Items
Now Active
It shows which communication protocol is in use: Turbo Ring V2, RSTP, or none.
Ring 1/2—Status
It shows Healthy if the ring is operating normally, and shows Break if the ring’s backup link is active.
Ring 1/2—Master/Slave
It indicates whether or not this EDS is the Master of the Turbo Ring. (This field appears only when Turbo Ring
or Turbo Ring V2 modes are selected.)
The user does not need to set the master to use Turbo Ring. If master is
not
set, the Turbo Ring protocol will
assign master status to one of the EDS units in the ring. The master is only used to determine which segment
serves as the backup path.
Ring 1/2—1st Ring Port Status
Ring 1/2—2nd Ring Port Status
The “Ports Status” indicators show Forwarding for normal transmission, Blocking if this port is connected to
a backup path and the path is blocked, and Link down if there is no connection.
Coupling—Mode
It indicates either None, Dual Homing, or Ring Coupling.
Coupling—Coupling Port status
It indicates either Primary, or Backup.
