Display in “Operation” field:
forwarding: this port is switched on and has a link.

At exactly one device, you switch the redundancy manager on at the
ends of the line.
Figure 4: Selecting HIPER-Ring version, entering ring ports and enabling/
disabling redundancy manager
If a device in the ring does not support the advanced mode for fast
switching times, you deactivate the advanced mode in the redun-
dancy manager, in the “Configuration Redundancy Manager” frame.
All Hirschmann devices that support the HIPER-Ring Version 2
(MRP Draft) also support the advanced mode.
Note: Deactivate the Spanning Tree protocol for the ports connected to
the redundant ring, because the Spanning Tree and the Ring
Redundancy work with different reaction times.
The “VLAN” frame enables you to assign HIPER-Ring Version 2 to a
VLAN.
