X-Ring Application
The industrial switch supports the X-Ring protocol that can help the network recover
from a connection failure within 300ms or less, ensuring network reliability. The X-Ring
algorithm is similar to Spanning Tree Protocol (STP)/RSTP algorithm but its recovery
time is less than STP/RSTP. The following figure illustrates an X-Ring application.
