High-availability Seamless Redundancy (HSR) Protocol
The HSR protocol is implemented accordingly to IEC 62439-3 (2016) Clause 5.
HSR allows seamless communication in case of a single network disruption (for
instance cable, driver, switch or controller failure).
An HSR-compatible device has two ports operating simultaneously, both ports being
connected to the same LAN. IEC 62439-3 (2016) Clause 5 assigns the term DANH
(Doubly Attached Node running HSR) to such devices. Reason H49 is a DANH.
The figure below shows an example of an HSR network. The doubly attached nodes
HSR RedBox, DANH 1 and DANH 2 send and receive HSR frames in both directions,
while the singly attached nodes SAN 1 and SAN 2 can only send and receive frames
without HSR header.
Singly attached nodes can, however, be connected to HSR ring, via a device which
converts a singly attached node into a doubly attached node. Devices performing this
function are often referred to as redundancy boxes or RedBoxes. Thus, devices with
single network cards such as personal computers, printers, etc., are singly attached
nodes that may be connected to the HSR network via a RedBox as shown in the
figure.
Because these SANs are connected to the HSR network, they can be considered as
Virtual Doubly Attached Nodes and described as VDANs.
