Moxa IKS-6728A-4GTXSFP-24-24-T [10/37] Dual ring configuration applies only to turbo ring v2

Managed Ethernet Switch Redundancy Protocol (UI 2.0) Turbo Ring

2-5

ATTENTION

Ring Coupling only needs to be enabled on one of the switches serving as the Ring Coupler. The Coupler

must

designate different ports as the two Turbo Ring ports and the coupling port.

NOTE

You do not need to use the same

switch for both Ring Coupling and Ring Master.

Dual-Ring Configuration (applies only to “Turbo Ring V2”)

The dual-ring option provides another ring coupling configuration, in which two adjacent rings share one

switch. This type of configuration is ideal for applications that have inherent cabling difficulties.

Dual-Homing Configuration (applies only to “Turbo Ring V2”)

The dual-homing option uses a single Ethernet switch to connect two networks. The primary path is the

operating connection, and the backup path is a back-up connection that is activated in the event that the

primary path connection fails.
