Each connected node in the HSR ring must support HSR protocol to ensure smooth
redundancy. Otherwise Ethernet communication is disturbed and might not work.
Single attached nodes can be connected to a HSR ring with a separate redundancy box
(RedBox).
Use correct Ethernet connectors in the IED with HSR. IEDs with HSR
support have three Ethernet connectors and redundant Ethernet ports
are marked as LAN A and LAN B. The third Ethernet port without any
LAN A or LAN B marking is an interlink port which is used as a
redundancy box connector.

The maximum number of IEDs supported in the HSR ring is 30. This
is to keep the ring delay as small as possible for horizontal
applications.
The IED interlink port does not support IEEE 1588 v2 slave devices.
HSR bandwidth is 50 Mbit/s as all messages are doubled for both
directions of the ring.
