12.3 MRP (Media Redundancy Protocol)
MRP is a standardized protocol according to IEC 62439.
It describes a mechanism for media redundancy in ring topologies.
A Media Redundancy Manager (MRM) checks the ring topology of a PROFINET network defined by
the network configuration for functionality. All other network nodes are Media Redundancy Clients
(MRC).
