4. Redundant Ring Applications
4.1 Auto Multi-Ring Technology
Auto Multi-Ring Technology was developed especially for switches connected in ring topology which
needs redundant support when any failure occurs in ring. For large network, more than one ring
connections are very common. Auto Multi-Ring Technology implementation can support more than
one ring connection within a switch. It is also able to work with RSTP support concurrently in the
switch.
Some basic information is:
 Supports up to five rings in one switch
 Supports up to 30 member switches in one ring
 Provides fast response time than RSTP protocol
 Works with RSTP protocol concurrently within one switch
The following figure illustrates a configuration that three redundant rings and one RSTP ring hook on
a main redundant ring. Some switches support two redundant rings concurrently.
