VIP-NET-M28A Network Switch - USER MANUAL
VERSION 1.0
O-Chain
O-Chain enhances network redundancy for any backbone networks, providing ease-of-use and maximum
fault-recovery swiftness, flexibility, compatibility, and cost-effectiveness in a set of network redundancy
topologies. The self-healing Ethernet technology designed for distributed and complex industrial networks
enables the network to recover in
less than 10ms for up to 250 switches if at any time a segment of the
chain fails.
O-Chain allows multiple redundant rings of different redundancy protocols to join and function together as
a large and the most robust network topologies. It can create multiple redundant networks beyond the
limitations of current redundant ring technologies.
O-Chain is very easy to configure and manage. Only one edge port of the edge switch needs to be defined.
Other switches beside them just need to have O-Chain enabled.
Label Description
Enable Check to enable O-Chain function
1 st Ring Port The first port connecting to the ring
2 nd Ring Port The second port connecting to the ring
Edge Port An O-Chain topology must begin with edge ports. The ports with
a smaller switch MAC address will serve as the backup link and
RM LED will light up.
