4.1 X-Ring Application
The industrial switch supports the X-Ring protocol that can help the network recover
from connection failure within 20ms or less, and make the network system more reliable.
The X-Ring algorithm is similar to spanning tree protocol (STP) algorithm but its recovery
time is faster than STP. The following figure is a sample X-Ring application.
