Section 1.4.1
Parallel Redundancy Protocol
Parallel Redundancy Protocol (PRP) provides hitless network recovery by replicating information over two
physically independent Ethernet networks. The following illustrates a typical PRP network:

NOTE
PRP expands the Ethernet frame by 6 octets due to RCT (Redundancy Check Trailer). Generation of PRP
supervision frames also consumes bandwidth. As a result, the network designer should keep in mind
the overhead introduced by the PRP network when calculating the network capacity.
Section 1.4.2
High Availability Seamless Redundancy
The basic principle behind High-availability Seamless Redundancy (HSR) is the replication of frames over both sides
of the HRS ring. The following illustrates a typical HSR network:
