The following tables show the selection options and default settings for
the ports used in the Ring/Network coupling.
Note: For the coupling ports, select the following settings in the Basic
Settings:Port Configuration dialog:
– Port: on
– Automatic configuration (autonegotiation):
on for twisted-pair connections
– Manual configuration: 100 Mbit/s FDX
for glass fiber connections
Redundancy Mode With the “Redundant Ring/Network Coupling” setting, either the main
line or the redundant line is active. Both lines are never active simulta-
neously.
With the “Extended Redundancy” setting, the main line and the redun-
dant line are simultaneously active if the connection line between the
devices in the connected network fails. During the reconfiguration peri-
od, package duplications may possibly occur. Therefore, only select
this setting if your application detects package duplications.
Coupling Mode Here you define whether the constellation you are configuring is a
coupling of redundancy rings (HIPER-Ring, MRP-Ring or Fast HIPER-
Ring), or network segments.
