Ring Port1:
In Rapid Super Ring environment, you should have 2 Ring Ports. No matter this
switch is Ring Master or not, when configuring RSR, 2 ports should be selected to be Ring Ports.
For Ring Master,
one of the ring ports will become the forwarding port and the other one will
become the blocking port.
Path Cost:
Change the Path Cost of Ring Port1. If this switch is the Ring Master of a Ring, then it
determines the blocking port. The Port with higher Path Cost in the two ring Ports will become the
blocking port, if the Path Cost is the same, the port with larger port number will become the
blocking port.
Ring Port2:
Assign another port for ring connection
Path Cost:
Change the Path Cost of Ring Port2
Rapid Dual Homing:
Rapid Dual Homing is an important feature of Korenix 3r
d
generation Ring
redundancy technology. When you want to connect multiple RSR or form redundant topologies
with other vendors, Rapid Dual Homing could allow you to have multiple links for redundancy
without any problem.
The maximum uplink is 7 per group.
In Dual Homing I released with JetNet 4000/4500 series, you have to configure additional port
as Dual Homing port to two uplink switches. In Rapid Dual Homing, you don’t need to configure
specific port to connect to other protocol. The Rapid Dual Homing will smartly choose the fastest
link for primary link and block all the other link to avoid loop. If the primary link failed, Rapid Dual
Homing will automatically forward the secondary link for network redundant. Of course, if there
are more connections, they will be standby links and recover one of then if both primary and
secondary links are broken.
Ring status:
To enable/disable the Ring. Please remember to enable the ring after you add it.
Notice:
JetNet 4706/4706f can only create single ring.
