Figure 27: Selecting ring redundancy, entering ring ports, enabling/disabling ring
manager and selecting ring recovery.
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 ( Redundancy:Rapid Spanning Tree:Port).
Note: When activating the HIPER-Ring function via software or DIP
switches, the device sets the corresponding settings for the pre-defined ring
ports in the configuration table (transmission rate and mode). If you switch off
the HIPER-Ring function, the ports, which are changed back into normal
ports, keep the ring port settings. Independently of the DIP switch setting, you
can still change the port settings via the software.
