Chapter 3 Connect Redundant EtherNet/IP Adapters
Redundant Architecture The following figures show DLR and Star Topology with the 1756-EN4TR
module. DLR provides higher resiliency than a single star. Linear topologies
are not recommended because any break or firmware updating of devices in
the line causes loss of communications to downstream devices.

Configure all DLR devices on the ring to be at the same speed on all links as
defined in the Deploying Device Level Ring within a Converged Plantwide Ethernet
Architecture design and implementation guide, ENET-TD015.
