Note: Some devices have a DIP switch, with which you can choose between

the software configuration and the DIP configuration. If the software con-

figuration is set, the other DIP switches have no effect.

Note: The choice of configuration primarily depends on the topological

conditions and the desired level of security (see table 4).

Note: For redundancy security reasons, a combination of Rapid Spanning

Tree and Ring/Network Coupling is not possible.

Note: Depending on the STAND-BY DIP switch position, the dialog dis-

plays those configurations that are not possible in gray. If you want to

select one of these grayed-out configurations, you put the STAND-BY

DIP switch on the Switch into the other position.

Note: One-Switch coupling: The redundancy function is assigned to the

Switch via the “STAND-BY” setting in the DIP switch, or via the

Management.

Note: Two-Switch coupling: The redundancy function is assigned to the

Switch in the redundant line via the “STAND-BY” setting in the DIP

switch, or via the Management.
