Network Application
This chapter provides some sample applications to help user to have more
actual idea of industrial switch function application. The following figure is a
sample application of the industrial switch.
X-Ring Application
The industrial switch supports the X-Ring protocol that can help the network
system to recovery from network connection failure within 300ms or less,
and make the network system more reliable. The X-Ring algorithm is like as
spanning tree protocol (STP)
algorithm but it has faster recovery time than
STP. The following figure is a sample X-Ring application.
