Parameter Meaning
Ring port X.X operation Display in “Operation” field:
active: This port is switched on and has a link.
inactive: This port is switched off or it has no link.
Redundancy Manager
Status (Ring Manager)
Status information, no input possible:
Active (redundant line): the redundant line was closed
because a data line or a network component within the ring is
down.
Inactive: the redundant ring is open, and all data lines and
network components are working.
Redundancy Manager
Mode (Ring Manager)
If there is exactly one device, you switch the Ring Manager
function on at the ends of the line.
Ring Recovery If you are using one or multiple lines with 1,000 MBit/s twisted pair
ports in the ring manager, you have the option of accelerating the
reconfiguration time for when connections are interrupted.
In the ring manager, select the desired value for the test packet
timeout for which the ring manager waits after sending a test
packet before it evaluates the test packet as lost.
X Standard: test packet timeout 480 ms
X Accelerated: test packet timeout 280 ms
Note: Settings in the “Ring Recovery” frame are only effective for
devices that are ring managers, and they are only meaningful if at
least one line in the ring consists of a 1,000 MBit/s twisted pair line.
Information If the device is a ring manager: The displays in this frame mean:
“Redundancy working”: When a component of the ring is down, the
redundant line takes over the function of the failed line.
“Configuration failure”: You have configured the function
incorrectly, or there is no ring port connection.
