MIEN5208 Series Managed Industrial Ethernet Switch
- 20 -
1. The VLANs allowed to pass through each port cannot be empty.
2. This series of switches supports up to 64 VLANs with a VID range of
1-4094.
3.A PC can only access a switch directly connected to itself. If you want
to access a switch that is not directly connected, the switch port that needs to
be connected to the PC must be added to the same VLAN as the pvid of the
VLAN trunk port.
4.6.3. Fast Ring network
Mwring technology is developed and designed by Wuhan Maiwe
Communication Co., Ltd. for high reliability industrial control network
applications. This technology allows switches to be connected by redundant
links. When one of them is disconnected, the other link can be quickly and
automatically restored. It has link redundancy and fast self-healing capabilities
in the event of a network outage or network failure.
Mwring technology In a ring network composed of switches, the network
disconnection self-recovery time is less than 20 milliseconds. It allows the user
to designate some of the port's ports as ring redundancy ports and connect to
other switches. When one of the network connections is interrupted, the
redundancy mechanism will enable the backup link and quickly resume
network communication. below is a comparison of recovery time based on
redundancy technology and is for reference only

Generally, Mwring technology requires three or more switches of the
series to form a ring and allows one or more rings to exist simultaneously on
the same network, but each ring must be configured with a unique ID. This ID
is the switch in the ring.
Ring networking:
The switch supports up to four ring networks. You can
enable several rings at any time. It is recommended to enable a single ring to
meet the needs and not to enable multiple, so as to avoid increasing the
complexity of the network link.
Network ID:
The ring ID mentioned above, the range is an integer
between 1 and 254. Each ring must have a unique ID, and this ID is shared by
all switches that make up the ring, that is, all connected The switches in this
ring use this ID for network identification.
