Path Cost
Change the Path Cost of Ring Port1, if this switch is the Ring Master of a Ring, then it
determines the blocking port. The port with higher Path Cost in the two Ring Ports
becomes the blocking port, If the Path Cost is the same, the port with larger port number
becomes the blocking port.
Ring Port2
Assign another port for ring connection.
Path Cost
Change the Path Cost of Ring Port2.
Rapid Dual
Homing
Rapid Dual Homing is an important feature of Rapid Super Ring redundancy technology.
When you want to connect multiple RSR or form redundant topology with other vendors,
RDH allows you to have a maximum of seven multiple links for redundancy without any
problem.
In RDH, you do not need to configure a specific port to connect to other protocol. The RDH
selects the fastest link for the primary link and blocks all the other links to avoid a loop.
If the primary link failed, RDH automatically forwards the secondary link for a network
redundant. If there are more connections, they are standby links and are recovered if
both primary and secondary links are broken.
Ring status
To Enable/Disable the Ring, remember to enable the Ring after you add it.
