System Management Settings
9-19
Auto Refresh:
Default (Enable): Auto refresh the status every 5 seconds.
Redundancy Protocol:
Shows which communication protocol is in use: Turbo Ring, Turbo Ring V2, RSTP, or none.
Status:
Shows Healthy if the ring is operating normally, and shows Break if the ring’s backup link is active.
Master Slave:
Indicates whether or not this NPort 6000 is the Master of the Turbo Ring. (This field appears only when Turbo
Ring or Turbo Ring V2 modes are active.)
ATTENTION
The user does not need to set the master to use Turbo Ring. If no master is set, the Turbo Ring protocol will
assign master status to one of the EDS units in the ring. The master is only used to determine which segment
serves as the backup path.

a backup path and the path is blocked, and Link down if there is no connection.
